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.

Description Rich Megginson 2023-07-19 23:39:44 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2186057 +++

Description of problem:

When using the `rhel-system-roles.certificate` system role provided in EL8.7, the role does not sufficiently check existing certificate parameters before reporting that no changes are needed. 

For example, if you create a certificate with basic syntax:

    - name: Build TLS certs for Satellite
      ansible.builtin.include_role:
        name: rhel-system-roles.certificate
      vars:
        certificate_requests:
          - name: test
            dns:
              - test.example.com
              - "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
            ips:
              - "{{ ansible_eth0.ipv4.address }}"
            principal: HTTP/test.example.com
            ca: ipa

Modifying it to:

    - name: Build TLS certs for Satellite
      ansible.builtin.include_role:
        name: rhel-system-roles.certificate
      vars:
        certificate_requests:
          - name: test
            key_size: 3072                <<<<<=====
            dns:
              - test.example.com
              - "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
            ips:
              - "{{ ansible_eth0.ipv4.address }}"
            principal: HTTP/test.example.com
            ca: ipa

Results in the second run reporting no changes, and the existing certificate not being modified.

When adding a "country" parameter, a new key/certificate pair is (re)issued.

    - name: Build TLS certs for Satellite
      ansible.builtin.include_role:
        name: rhel-system-roles.certificate
      vars:
        certificate_requests:
          - name: test
            key_size: 3072                <<<<<=====
            country: "AU"                 <<<<<=====
            dns:
              - test.example.com
              - "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
            ips:
              - "{{ ansible_eth0.ipv4.address }}"
            principal: HTTP/test.example.com
            ca: ipa


Actual results:
Certificate is not issued with new parameters.

Expected results:
Modifying any of the creation parameters would modify the created certificate and reissue if required.
