System Status Details

Overall Status: Current
when the subscriptions in your manifest expire, all your clients lose all their “Katello Internal” subscriptions too.
Have you tried running subscription-manager attach --auto on your clients or checked if your clients can see any subscriptions (e.g. with subscription-manager list --available)?
I would expect your clients to currently have zero subscriptions consumed (“attached”), you can check that with subscription-manager list --consumed. If they have subscriptions consumed, try subscription-manager repos --list to check if they can see your repos and use subscription-manager repos --enable <reponame> to try and enable the repos.
I already tried subscription-manager attach --auto it is subscribing fine.
[root@ ~]# subscription-manager attach --auto
All installed products are covered by valid entitlements. No need to update subscriptions at this time.

For the command subscription-manager list --available the client-server is listing all the RedHat subscriptions.
For the command subscription-manager list --consumed the client-server show as consumed “1”…

For the command subscription-manager repos --list below is the output…
[root@ ~]# subscription-manager repos --list
This system has no repositories available through subscriptions.
I tried all of the above already, still client-servers showing no repositories on RHEL7 and RHEL8, but only RHEL6 client-servers shows RHEL6 ELS repositories.
Hm, this is odd. On the first glance, looks like everything is fine on the client-side.
Maybe something got messed up on the Katello end when the subscriptions expired? Have you checked if all the RedHat Repos are still enabled under “Content” → “Red Hat Repositories”? Do they sync properly?
If yes, you could try to re-publish/promote your Content View.
Just poking at things here though, I have not had this happen myself yet.
