An update on this:
If I enable the Repository Sets on the Activation Key that I’m using for the host BEFORE the registration of the host:
Interestingly, if I clear the errata message, it reappears after updating a package. So, why the difference?
Are the rhsm services supposed to be disabled?
user@test:~$ sudo systemctl status rhsm.service
○ rhsm.service - RHSM dbus service
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/rhsm.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: inactive (dead)
user@test:~$ sudo systemctl status rhsm-facts.service
○ rhsm-facts.service - RHSM system Facts dbus service
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/rhsm-facts.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: inactive (dead)
You probably have the katello-host-tools-tracer installed, so it will get a report and update every time you do a package action. This should report things and get the state changed, just not back to this warning, but perhaps there is something really buggy.
Yes, katello-host-tools-tracer is installed and all works as it should, just the errata error showing up.
I do have an issue with katello-host-tools and katello-host-tools-tracer not getting installed during host deployment, but that’s another issue altogether. (Some package installs fail during deployment)
This is working as mentioned if I don’t install katello-host-tools and katello-host-tools-tracer. If I install them, I get the errata message every time that update a package, but saying “No installed packages and/or enabled repositories have been reported by katello-host-tools.” instead of “No installed packages and/or enabled repositories have been reported by subscription-manager.”.
I’ve also noticed the “No installed packages and/or enabled repositories have been reported by katello-host-tools” appearing on all my Debian/Ubuntu hosts, and re-appearing after every package update.
Has anyone got any ideas on how to remediate this issue?
