Description of problem: If a user creates a kickstart profile on an old Satellite (<= 520) and proceeds to upgrade the Satellite to 530, the kickstart profile will migrate over to Cobbler appropriately, but the section within the Cobbler-generated kickstart file related to re-registration will read as thus: # begin cobbler snippet # begin Red Hat management server registration # not configured to register to any Red Hat management server (ok) # end Red Hat management server registration Furthermore, if one performs a 'cobbler profile dumpvars --name=<profilename>', the information contained pertaining to the Red Hat management server-related keys will look like this: 'redhat_management_key': '', 'redhat_management_permissive': 0, 'redhat_management_server': '<FQDN of Satellite>', 'redhat_management_type': 'site' Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): I saw this behavior with the following upgrade scenarios: 520->530, 7/14 build 511->530, 7/14 build 3.7->530, 7/14 build How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create an older Satellite (<=520) and create a kickstart profile upon it 2. Upgrade this Satellite to the latest build of 530 3. View the Cobbler-generated kickstart file pertaining to the profile you created or run a 'cobbler profile dumpvars --name=<profilename>' Actual results: As above Expected results: Red Hat management server registration information preserved Additional info:
