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.

Hi,
is this going to be addressed in RHEL8 anytime soon?
It was fixed in RHEL 7.7 with a patch https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1714167
I am not seeing that fix in RHEL 8.1 or RHEL 8.2 Beta

Maybe it's time for another rebase to the version used in RHEL7 extras like done here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1722848 ?

Or even a switch to a newer WALinuxAgent version like being discussed here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1794682 ?

Greetings
Klaas

Hi, 

This is planing to be addressed in next RHEL 8 Application Stream (8.2.1), and its release cycle is about 3 months. And yes it will be fixed by rebasing to a newer WALinuxAgent version.
Not sure if this will meet your requirement.If you need a quick fix, it is best that you talk with our support engineer in your case https://access.redhat.com/support/cases/#/case/02636779, and he can help to raise your request.

Thanks!
