    How to properly rename a custom repo

    Posted on

    Hi,

    On Satellite 6.6, I have custom repos that I created with a simple name/id.
    product name: epel
    repo name : el7
    repo label : el7
    repo id : ORG_product_label

    when doing a subscription-manager repos --list , the repo id is nice but the repo name is not useful at all:
    Repo ID: ORG_epel_el7
    Repo Name: el7
    Repo URL: https://xxx.yyy.zzz/pulp/repos/ORG/Library/ccview/custom/epel/el7
    Enabled: 1

    When I change the Repo name to a more useful value:
    product name: epel
    repo name : "EPEL for RHEL7"
    repo label : el7
    repo id : ORG_product_label
    I expect subscription manager to show :
    Repo ID: ORG_epel_el7
    Repo Name: EPEL for RHEL7
    Repo URL: https://xxx.yyy.zzz/pulp/repos/ORG/Library/ccview/custom/epel/el7
    Enabled: 1

    But it keeps showing me the label instead of the name.

    I noticed that in content views, the new label is shown but in the activation key repository set, it shows the labels in place of the name.
    Even when creating a new activation key, it keeps the label for the name.

    How can I make the activation key and the clients see the correct name?
