Description Sayan Das 2023-04-10 17:03:39 UTC
1. Proposed title of this feature request

A similar option like curl command from Global Registration method, to update\refresh SSL certs on the client systems connected with satellite\capsule instead of using katello-ca-consumer rpm


2. What is the nature and description of the request?

Introduction of a snippet\template which can be used to generate a curl command and use the same to update\refresh SSL certs on the client systems


3. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

This RFE is an extension of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2124052 basically. 

Since katello-ca-consumer rpm has been deprecated and no longer being used for registration purposes, If SSL CA changes in satellite, Then end-users have only one option left with them i.e. completely re-register the system.

But It should not be required. We should have a similar option present to generate a curl command, that will help deploying the new SSL CA on the client systems.


4. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)

In the same was as we generate and use the curl command for Global Registration method
 

5. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.

* Install satellite

* Register a client system

* Install custom SSL certs on satellite

* Use the new feature to update the CA on the client system 


6. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla?


No


7. Does the customer have any specific time-line dependencies and which release would they like to target (i.e. RHEL5, RHEL6)?

Satellite 6.13 or as soon as it's feasible


8. Is the sales team involved in this request and do they have any additional input?

NA


9. List any affected packages or components.

foreman


10. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?

RH support can

Comment 1 Sayan Das 2023-06-26 16:07:35 UTC
Can we recommend this as an alternative to installing katello-ca-consumer, for every client system, after a SSL CA renewal ?

# _SERVER=$(subscription-manager config | awk '/ hostname/{print $NF}'| tr -d '[]')

# curl http://$_SERVER/pub/katello-rhsm-consumer | bash

# subscription-manager refresh

Comment 2 Marek Hulan 2024-02-14 13:46:08 UTC
Sayan, this file relies on katello-ca-consumer package, once that's dropped, this file will no longer exist.

Comment 3 Sayan Das 2024-02-14 13:59:34 UTC
I do understand that. When i had proposed those steps, https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/36747 was not yet fixed.

But with https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/36747 fixed and a new subscription_manager_setup snippet developed, I think some UI option can be created to make use of this snippet to fix RHSM config or update the CA certs as needed, on client systems.
