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. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-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 of problem:

The file /var/lib/candlepin/candlepin-crl.crl contains many duplicate certificates, growing to file sizes greater than 1 Gb.  Candlepin logs show successful completions of CertificateRevocationListTask, but this doesn't help.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

candlepin-2.5.17-1.el7sat.noarch


How reproducible:

Unknown


Steps to Reproduce:

Unknown

Additional info:

This was first reported in bugzilla 1399356, but that was closed as resolved years ago.

Is this a duplicate of bug 1784341?

No.  That other bug appears to describe an issue with high CPU usage, whereas this bug describes an issue with the size of file /var/lib/candlepin/candlepin-crl.crl.

*** Bug 1784935 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Rehana,

If bug 1784341 is addressed, is the RFE needed?

In other words, will disabling CertificateRevocationListTask job mentioned by that bug result in this behavior no longer existing?  Will the candlepin-crl.crl still be used and grow?
