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.

Description John Sefler 2019-04-04 20:03:22 UTC 
Description of problem:
This bugzilla has been opened to fix the typoed flaw originally implemented to fix Bug 1668947.

subscription-manager development team simply needs to change all instances of "enable_metadata" from https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager/pull/2029/commits/5bb36642f601518ccd916b7ff0a56f94eb7f78d6 to "enabled_metadata" as realized in comments https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1668947#c11 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1667111#c11


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@kvm-01-guest29 ~]# subscription-manager version
server type: Red Hat Subscription Management
subscription management server: 2.3.16-1
subscription management rules: 5.35
subscription-manager: 1.23.8-35.el8


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
Follow the verification steps in Bug 1668947 switching "enable_metadata" to "enabled_metadata" 


Actual results:
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1668947#c9

Expected results:
With this fix, we expect "pkcon refresh force" to stop downloading repo info for all the default disabled repos.

Comment 1 John Sefler 2019-04-05 13:52:03 UTC 
Here is an unconfirmed WORKAROUND to add a repo-override to all of the currently disabled repos....

[root@kvm-01-guest29 ~]# for DISABLEDREPO in $(subscription-manager repos --list-disabled | grep "Repo ID" | cut --delimiter=: --field=2); do subscription-manager repo-override --repo=$DISABLEDREPO --add=enabled_metadata:0; done;
[root@kvm-01-guest29 ~]#

  enabled_metadata: 0

Repository: rhel-8-for-x86_64-supplementary-source-rpms
  enabled_metadata: 0

[root@kvm-01-guest29 ~]#


Note: if the user is actively enabling new repos after this workaround is applied, then the workaround has to be re-applied AFTER removing the overrides like this...

[root@kvm-01-guest29 ~]# subscription-manager repo-override --remove-all
[root@kvm-01-guest29 ~]# for DISABLEDREPO in $(subscription-manager repos --list-disabled | grep "Repo ID" | cut --delimiter=: --field=2); do subscription-manager repo-override --repo=$DISABLEDREPO --add=enabled_metadata:0; done;
