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.

Doc Text:
.Merged system purpose commands under `subscription-manager syspurpose` Previously, there were multiple subscription-manager modules (`addons`, `role`, `service-level`, and `usage`) for setting attributes related to system purpose. These modules have been moved under the new `subscription-manager syspurpose` module. The original subscription-manager modules (`addons`, `role`, `service-level`, and `usage`) are now deprecated. Additionally, the package (`python3-syspurpose`) that provides the `syspurpose` command line tool has been deprecated in RHEL 8.6. All the capabilities of this package are covered by the new `subscription-manager syspurpose` module. This update provides a consistent way to view, set, and update all system purpose attributes using a single command of subscription-manager; this replaces all the existing system purpose commands with their equivalent versions available as a new subcommand. For example, `subscription-manager role --set SystemRole` becomes `subscription-manager syspurpose role --set SystemRole` and so on. For complete information about the new commands, options, and other attributes, see the `SYSPURPOSE OPTIONS` section in the `subscription-manager` man page.

Pre-verification 15 - man subscription-manager syspurpose:

man page shows:
SYSPURPOSE OPTIONS
       The syspurpose command displays the current configured syspurpose preferences for the system.

       The syspurpose command has subcommands for all the various syspurpose preferences and attributes:

              1. addons

              2. role

              3. service-level

              4. usage

       --show Shows  the  system's  current  set  of  syspurpose preference. This is output in the form of a blob of json. Single-valued
              entries for which there is no value will be included in the output with a value of "". List entries which  have  no  value
              will be included in the output with a value of "[]" (less the quotes).
// addons, role, service-level and usage options are described in man page as well
