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.

Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
Subscription Manager will allow users to specify a hostname for an on-site subscription service. However, various servers use different prefixes for the web application, which might confuse the user. This enhancement standardizes the various server prefixes to "/subscription". This change unifies all servers to use the "/subscription" prefix.

Description Devan Goodwin 2012-05-07 16:16:35 UTC 
Description of problem:

Subscription Manager is being updated to allow the user to specify a hostname for an on-site subscription service to register against. However the various servers all use different prefixes for the web application, which the user is not likely to know. (i.e. /subscription, /katello/api, /headpin/api) 

We would like to standardize on /subscription being the definitive web app prefix across all our products that subscription manager hits.


Ivan's proposed solution is via apache configuration: https://www.redhat.com/archives/katello-devel/2012-May/msg00028.html
Comment 1 Lukas Zapletal 2012-05-09 20:24:34 UTC 
So is my understanding correct; rhsm will ship with /subscription by default.

We should still change the prefix for old clients, right?
Comment 2 Devan Goodwin 2012-05-10 15:19:49 UTC 
Any properly configured old client should still be fine, as the previous API URL would still exist. The new redirect would be a default for all new clients, but again can be configured in the rhsm.conf file, or using the new gui/cli tools for selecting a server, port, and webapp prefix.

Comment 6 Devan Goodwin 2012-10-03 15:38:57 UTC 
Can be tested by using rhsm.conf prefix of /subscriptions.

i.e. register with subscription-manager-gui, specify the katello server by IP or hostname only (it will default to /subscriptions) Or specify katellohostname:port/subscriptions

registration should work, system should appear in katello.
Comment 7 Devan Goodwin 2012-10-03 15:41:51 UTC 
Mistake in my previous comment and the title of this but, it's "subscription", not the plural "subscriptions".

Server prefix "/subscription" works OK and it registers system.
