Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here.

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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit).

Due to growing customer concern about the UUID consolidation work that was done in 6.5 and the conflicts it is causing during host registration, we are going to add a switch to Candlepin to disable the constraint.
The main Satellite 6 product bug can be found here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1749785
This bug is to track the effort to add the switch and configuration to Candlepin.
Verified in Satellite 6.7 Snap 16
Steps:
1. Added following configuration line to /etc/candlepin/candlepin.conf
candlepin.use_system_uuid_for_matching=false
2. Restarted satellite services (for good measure)
3. Set the uuid to be the same on two hosts
echo '{"virt.uuid": "4546B285-6C41-5D6R-86G5-0BFR4B3625FD", "virt.is_guest":"True"}' > /etc/rhsm/facts/virt_uuid.facts
4. Registered both hosts to the satellite
Result:
Both hosts were correctly registered and received unique subscription ids.
See attached screenshot for verification.
