Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

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:	Feature: If a system is not registered with insights, this fact is now highlighted when logging into a system via the Cockpit Web Console. Reason: While it is necessary to subscribe a system in order to register with Insights, Insights is the real value. Users who subscribed, but don't use Insights are not taking advantage of their RHEL subscription.	Story Points:	---

Description Andreas Nilsson 2019-08-27 10:49:47 UTC

With the work landing soon in https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager/pull/2089 for adding the capability to connect your system to Insights as part of registering the system, we need a way to indicate easily when a system is not connected to Insights. In fact, this should be treated as a sub-optimal state of a system, since it's not making full use of the value the subscription gives.

This is more or less the same as bug #1745534, but for the web console instead of the terminal.

Comment 1 Marius Vollmer 2019-09-09 08:25:38 UTC

This needs changes to the "System" overview page, not to the subscription manager UI.  I'll move this bug to us.

Comment 4 Martin Pitt 2019-09-09 20:10:00 UTC

The RHEL 8 specific implementation on Cockpit's system page is ready to land now: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/12737

Comment 9 Martin Pitt 2019-10-11 06:56:13 UTC

Adding release note to avoid forgetting about it, but this isn't visible in 8.1 yet until the corresponding subscription-manager part lands (in 8.2 most probably)
