912375 – RFE - "rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm" migration script to accept the expected parameter either via standard input or the equivalent of an "answer" file"

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 of problem:
In order to migrate from RHN Classic (hosted/satellite) to RHSM-web (hosted) or Katello/SAM (on-premise) there should be facility,
to pass the required parameters via command-line or answer-file

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
# rpm -qa | grep subscription-manager
subscription-manager-1.1.23-1.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-migration-1.1.23-1.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-migration-data-1.12.2.6-1.el6.noarch


How reproducible:
# yum install subscription-manager-migration subscription-manager-migration-data --enablerepo=rel-eng.latest

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm --serverurl=qetello05.usersys.redhat.com/sam/api
   Red Hat account: qa
   Password:  ******
   System Engine Username:  admin  (or whatever the user name is)
   Password:  ****   (this is your SAM user's password)
   Org:  SAM QE
   Env:  DEV


2. Migration successful without any errors
  
Actual results:
No provision to provide the above details using command-line utility or
feeding the details to answer-file

Expected results:

Author: Alex Wood <awood>
Date:   Thu Sep 19 15:13:33 2013 -0400

    Refactor credentials gathering.
    
    Additionally, use a more generic term that "System Engine".

^^^ VERIFIED: Notice the new command line options to specify --redhat-user=REDHATUSER --redhat-password=REDHATPASSWORD --subscription-service-user=SUBSERVICEUSER --subscription-service-password --org=ORG --environment=ENVIRONMENT which can all be used to satisfy the request in comment 0.



[root@jsefler-6 ~]# rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm 
Red Hat username: qa
Red Hat password: 
Subscription Service username: non-existant-user
Subscription Service password: 
Unable to connect to certificate server: Invalid Credentials.  See /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log for more details.
[root@jsefler-6 ~]# 

^^^ VERIFIED: The labels for interactive credential prompts have changed as expected.  The "System Engine" label has been replaced with a generic "Subscription Service" label.



[root@jsefler-6 ~]# rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm --redhat-user=qa --redhat-password=redhatqa --subscription-service-user=stage_test_12 --subscription-service-password=redhat --org=7065298 --no-auto --serverurl=subscription.rhn.stage.redhat.com:443/subscription

Retrieving existing RHN Classic subscription information...

System is currently subscribed to these RHN Classic Channels:

rhel-x86_64-server-6

Installing product certificates for these RHN Classic channels:
+-----------------------------------------------------+
rhel-x86_64-server-6

Product certificates installed successfully to /etc/pki/product.

Preparing to unregister system from RHN Classic...
System successfully unregistered from RHN Classic.

Attempting to register system to Red Hat Subscription Management...
The system has been registered with ID: 69bbfe34-c837-43e9-b560-ab016291a201 
System 'jsefler-6.usersys.redhat.com' successfully registered to Red Hat Subscription Management.

[root@jsefler-6 ~]# 

^^^ VERIFIED: the migration script can be run with options to avoid interactive prompting.  (Note: I did not specify --environment because the hosted stage subscription management server does not support environments, but a katello server does and should only be required when more than one environment is available to the Subscription Service credentials.
