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:

On a new system:

Monitor > Tasks shows:
Inventory scheduled sync	paused	error

~]# satellite-installer --help | grep -i cloud
    --[no-]enable-foreman-plugin-rh-cloud Enable 'foreman_plugin_rh_cloud' puppet module (default: true)

its enabled by default, so its bad user experience to have this error

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.9
6.10

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a Satellite
2. Check tasks for "Inventory scheduled sync"


Actual results:
Inventory scheduled sync	paused	error

Expected results:
System should not attempt to authenticate using rh_cloud_token when token is not set.
A nicer error could be given to warn no token is set.
Perhaps its best to prevent enabling tasks such as Inventory upload until token is set.



Additional info:
Bug 1976904 - Inventory scheduled sync fails on new system

This causes foreman-maintain with a FAILED step so it's a really bad experience.
