Description of problem: To prevent a host from registering with a different DMI than is on record, unless the host is in "build" mode. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Satellite 6.9 How reproducible: Easily Reproducible Expected results: While rebuilding a host in a Cloud Infra, the DMI might change. When the host is not being rebuilt, a different host should be prevented from snagging the subscription information (by setting host_profile_assume == false). But if the host is set to be rebuilt, a new subscription should be expected for the host. Additional info: In customer's words: "This is a bit of a corollary to the existing `host_profile_assume` setting. I'd like to prevent a host from registering with a different DMI than is on record, unless the host is in "build" mode. If I'm rebuilding a host in my Cloud Infra, the DMI might change. When the host is not being rebuilt, I'd like to prevent a different host from snagging the subscription information (by setting host_profile_assume == false). But if I've set the host to be rebuilt, I'm expecting a new subscription for the host." Technical Requirements: Extension to app/services/katello/registration_manager.rb (and settings) Timetable: The customer would like to see this in Sat 6.10 Upstream PR link : https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/32405

Thank you for your interest in Red Hat Satellite. We have evaluated this request, and while we recognize that it is a valid request, we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. This is due to other priorities for the product, and not a reflection on the request itself. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this feel free to contact your Red Hat Account Team. Thank you.
