I think this may have been fixed by the fix for bug 1698443 (which went in to the 8.1 builds as we have been rebasing from master).

Please test this again. That bug was fixed as recently as May.

If this turns out to be fixed, please move the bug to MODIFIED and add qa_ack.

I can still reproduce this bug on 8.1 builds

cockpit screen shot (PFA)

cockpit

During the verification process of this bug 1804114, observed the same behaviour in a slightly different test steps : 

Listing those below. 

1. Install cockpit on RHEL8.2 system
2. Start the cockpit service (at this point the hostname should be pointing to production server by default ) 
3. Load the cockpit page n the navigate to "Subscriptions" page
4. Now from cli , register to stage server using --serverurl option 
5. Notice that the status changes are not reflected on cockpit UI (PFA: Not status change.png)
6. After unregistering from CLI, Repeat the same step 4 with --auto-attach option. you will notice that the status changes are reflected immediately. 


QE and Dev discussed this observation and decided to track it in this bug . Removing triage keyword to discuss again in the triage meeting
