the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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:
Size of a "Complete Library export" can be double the consumption of /var/lib/pulp/media/artifact/ when the same base repositories are part of multiple CVs and CCVs ( i.e. multiple copies of the same repo and artifacts exist).
See https://github.com/pulp/pulpcore/issues/4159 for more info.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.13
How reproducible:
Undetermined at present but possible to reproduce in the customer's environment.
Steps to Reproduce:
Probably:
1. Enable and sync these two repos with immediate download policies
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - BaseOS RPMs 8.8
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - BaseOS Kickstart 8.8
2. Add them to a CV and publish a new version.
3. Make 20 - 50 copies of that CV and Publish a new version for all of them.
4. Check the disk space consumption of /var/lib/pulp/media/artifact/ directory.
5. Perform a full library export for that organization.
6. Check the size of export tar in the exported directory.
Actual results:
Size noted in Step 6 is much bigger ( almost double ) than the size noted in Step 4.
Expected results:
The exported archive should never exceed the total size of artifacts downloaded in pulp
Additional info:
It might not be 100% possible to reproduce the issue with just RPM repos and the reproducer may need to include a file type repo or a docker type repo.
Verified.
Tested on Satellite 6.14.0 Snap 17.0
python39-pulpcore-3.22.15-1.el8pc.noarch
Verification Steps:
1. Enable and sync few Red Hat repositories(Set the download policy to "Immediate") also create a file type or docker type repositories and sync them.
2. Add them to CV, publish and promote it.
3. Make 20-50 copies of the CV and Publish a new version for all of them.
4. Check the disk space consumption of var/lib/pulp/media/artifact/ directory.
5. Perform a full library export for that organization.
6. Check the size of exported tar file present in /var/lib/pulp/exports/Default_Organization/Export-Library/* directory.
7. Compare consumption in Step 5 and Step 7, size of tar file in Step 7 should not exceed the one in Step5
Observation:
The size of the exported tar file created in path /var/lib/pulp/exports/Default_Organization/Export-Library/* is not more than the disk space consumption of var/lib/pulp/media/artifact/ directory.
