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 Amar Ganbat 2019-12-21 21:41:21 UTC 
Additional info:

Description of problem:

Some content hosts having issues with registration. Error messages are enclosed.  
The customer is willing to add more unique fields like MAC address and IP address with combination DMI and VIRT UUID. Not only user VIRT UUID.   

~~~
 [ERROR] subscription-manager:4347:MainThread @managercli.py:1116 - The DMI UUID of this host (UUID) matches other registered hosts: hostname
  raise RestlibException(response['status'], error_msg, response.get
~~~

Temporary workaround solves the problem, but the customer wants to have this feature (additional field combination check ) in future releases.  

1. Generate new random UUID
# uuidgen
78754be7-9a34-4f6e-b1a0-0fa13b170544

2. Add it to katello.facts
cat /etc/rhsm/facts/katello.facts 
{"network.hostname-override":"HOSTNAME","virt.uuid":"78754be7-9a34-4f6e-b1a0-0fa13b170544","dmi.system.uuid":"78754be7-9a34-4f6e-b1a0-0fa13b170544"}

3. Check
# subscription-manager facts | grep -i uuid
dmi.system.uuid: 78754be7-9a34-4f6e-b1a0-0fa13b170544
virt.uuid: 78754be7-9a34-4f6e-b1a0-0fa13b170544

4. Register
# subscription-manager register --org="ORGANIZATION" --activationkey=<ACTIVATION_KEY>
