Bug 1882548

subscription_status of content hosts according to Satellite WebUI is incorrect vs. `subscription-manager status` output of corresponding system.

STEPS TAKEN:

1. We validated that the subscription_status reported on the Satellite WebUI was unknown, while `subscription-manager status` (what is reported by Candlepin /rhsm API) output shows valid subscription status

2. Checked the internal Katello subscription_status (which returns "valid") of the content host using the below rake script:

#!/bin/bash

echo '
myHost = Host.find_by_name("myhost.example.com")
Katello::Candlepin::Consumer.new(myHost.subscription_facet.uuid, myHost.organization.label).entitlement_status
' | foreman-rake console

Which gives the output:

Katello::Candlepin::Consumer.new(myHost.subscription_facet.uuid, myHost.organization.label).entitlement_status
"valid"

3. Reimported Katello::Subscription and Katello::Pools using the below rake script:

#!/bin/bash

echo "Importing Subscription Pools from Candlepin to Katello (what is displayed on the WebUI)."

echo '
namespace :katello do
  task :import_subscriptions => ["environment"] do
    User.current = User.anonymous_api_admin
    puts _("Importing Subscriptions")
    Katello::Subscription.import_all
    Katello::Pool.import_all
  end
end
' | foreman-rake console

This did NOT resolve the issue

4. Checked the subscription_status according to hammer, to rule out any possible issues with the UI code and prove that the Katello API is returning incorrect subscription_status:

$  hammer host list --search "name ~ myhost.example.com and subscription_status = valid"
---|------|------------------|------------|----|-----|--------------|----------------------
ID | NAME | OPERATING SYSTEM | HOST GROUP | IP | MAC | CONTENT VIEW | LIFECYCLE ENVIRONMENT
---|------|------------------|------------|----|-----|--------------|----------------------

$ hammer host list --search "name ~ myhost.example.com and subscription_status != valid"
------|---------------------------|------------------|--------------------|--------------|-------------------|--------------|----------------------
ID    | NAME                      | OPERATING SYSTEM | HOST GROUP         | IP           | MAC               | CONTENT VIEW | LIFECYCLE ENVIRONMENT
------|---------------------------|------------------|--------------------|--------------|-------------------|--------------|----------------------
XXXXX | myhost.example.com | RHEL Server 7.6  | ExampleHostGroup | xx.xx.xx.xx | XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX | ExampleContentView  | ExampleLifecycleEnvironment                  
------|---------------------------|------------------|--------------------|--------------|-------------------|--------------|----------------------

Since hammer also returns incorrect data regarding the subscription_status, this proves that the Katello API returns incorrect data (this same test could have been performed with curl)





ADDITIONAL NOTES:

1. This Satellite was previously changed to Simple Content Access mode, then again reverted to Organization Environment Access mode. The issue was noticed after reverting to Organization Environment Access mode.

2. Possibly some incorrect code path is getting traversed at:

https://github.com/Katello/katello/blob/master/app/models/katello/subscription_status.rb#L44-L48

For example, maybe the status_override is taking precedence over Katello::Candlepin::Consumer.new(host.subscription_facet.uuid, host.organization.label).entitlement_status (which returned the valid status, as we checked in step #2 above)
