RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Doc Text:
.The `redfish-finder` service properly sets up BMC communication Previously, the `redfish-finder` service became unresponsive when it could not find a USB network interface for the baseboard management controller (BMC). Consequently, `redfish-finder` failed to set up BMC communication. This update reverts an early patch that byte-swaps the USB IDs to work around an early firmware issue. As a result, `redfish-finder` now functions as expected.

Comment 1 Neil Horman 2019-03-12 14:50:33 UTC 
This needs an upstream backport to handle the usb device/vendor id swapping found on the lenovo firmware.  Now that the firmware is updated I can get the latest upstream sources to fix it.  Though your target release is set to 8.0.  Does this need to be a blocker (assuming we have time for that), or an 8.1 target with a z-stream backport
Comment 2 Rachel Sibley 2019-03-12 15:02:17 UTC 
@nhorman I am ok with setting to 8.1 with a z-stream backport, I'm not sure how many customers are relying on this feature for 8.0, is there a workaround for this ?
Comment 3 Neil Horman 2019-03-12 16:24:43 UTC 
ok, lets do this as an 8.1 fix with a z-stream.  The field workaround would be manual modification of /usr/bin/redfish-finder with a small patch.  Ugly, but workable.  And this will be an early z-stream batch, so I think we're ok.

Comment 9 Rachel Sibley 2019-09-25 16:14:48 UTC 
Verified as fixed with latest redfish-finder rpm, I do see a warning about parsing, but the service started
successfully, a separate bz can be filed if deemed necessary:
redfish-finder: Unexpected error parsing ServiceConfig

Before:
================
~]# rpm -q redfish-finder
redfish-finder-0.2-1.el8.noarch

~]#  systemctl start redfish-finder
Job for redfish-finder.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status redfish-finder.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
