Depending on testing with https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1679509#c10, we are hopeful that code change is only required in libdnf for that bz1679509. This bz is for tracking, ensure sufficient testing is performed, and determine if additional changes are required for the component of this BZ. Please test according to the the test builds in cmt10 (or later) above, as well as cmt 11 explaining the concerns and goals.
Moving to ON_QA for testing. Be advised there have been no new code changes for subscription-manager to implement this. We are testing compatibility of the dnf changes made to implement this.
As mentioned in the comment 4, there is no subscription-manager code change required for the skip_if_unavailable=false.I will use this ON_QA subscription-manager bug as a sanity test only to confirm that the change from libdnf works with latest subscription-manager build for 8.1 # subscription-manager version server type: Red Hat Subscription Management subscription management server: 2.3.17-1 subscription management rules: 5.35 subscription-manager: 1.25.11-1.el8 # rpm -q python3-hawkey python3-libdnf libdnf python3-hawkey-0.33.0-1.el8.x86_64 python3-libdnf-0.33.0-1.el8.x86_64 libdnf-0.33.0-1.el8.x86_64 # subscription-manager register --serverurl=subscription.rhsm.stage.redhat.com --baseurl=https://cdn.redhat.com --auto-attach --username=qa@redhat.com Registering to: subscription.rhsm.stage.redhat.com:443/subscription Password: The system has been registered with ID: e9008130-7cdd-4357-8905-26e0a324198d The registered system name is: kvm-02-guest07.lab.eng.rdu2.redhat.com Installed Product Current Status: Product Name: Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86_64 Beta Status: Subscribed [root@kvm-02-guest07 ~]# subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-8-for-x86_64-sap-* Repository 'rhel-8-for-x86_64-sap-solutions-beta-rpms' is enabled for this system.

The transaction ceases on the first unavailable repo encountered and exits with a non-zero exit code. Based on the observations, moving the bug to verified.
