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.

Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2011-04-08 18:13:14 UTC
This is a 6.2 issue.  Too late for 6.1.

Comment 3 Miroslav Grepl 2011-04-11 07:18:45 UTC
Yes, too late.

Comment 8 Miroslav Grepl 2011-06-29 11:37:25 UTC
I am working on this policy. I believe we have enough time for adding/testing this policy for RHEL6.2.

Comment 17 Miroslav Grepl 2011-07-28 12:19:45 UTC
Bryan,
any idea?

Comment 18 Bryan Kearney 2011-07-28 12:43:47 UTC
Sorry... any idea on what? If we need to clone it? If so, we should.. yes.

Comment 19 Miroslav Grepl 2011-07-28 12:49:47 UTC
AVC messages from the comment #14.

Comment 20 Bryan Kearney 2011-07-28 18:02:16 UTC
There is a cron job which checks the status of the certifictes. Could that be the issue?

Comment 23 Miroslav Grepl 2011-08-03 11:27:45 UTC
Bryan,
is /usr/libexec/rhsmd also executed by rhsmcertd binary?

Comment 24 Bryan Kearney 2011-08-03 11:58:57 UTC
/usr/libexec/rhsmd is a seperate binary deliverd with the subsription manage rpm.

Comment 25 Miroslav Grepl 2011-08-05 10:24:12 UTC
ok, but is executed by daemon?

Comment 26 Miroslav Grepl 2011-08-05 13:33:23 UTC
*** Bug 728535 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 27 Bryan Kearney 2011-08-08 16:17:07 UTC
the rpm delivers a service, rhsm, which in turn invokes /usr/bin/rhsmd. That in turn invokes python executing the file:

/usr/share/rhsm/subscription_manager/certmgr.py

Comment 28 James Bowes 2011-08-08 16:19:08 UTC
rhsmd is run via cron (nightly), and also via dbus activation (in response to a call from our desktop systray icon)

Comment 29 Miroslav Grepl 2011-08-10 15:23:14 UTC
