RHEL 8.6+ subscription-manager falsely detecting azure on install or register command (Unable to register VM)

Posted on

Hello.

I am trying to register RHEL 8.6 and 9 in a local hyper-v environment.

Network is testing fine, curl test to subscription URLs pass, but I believe I am encountering the azure false detection bug as in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2057053

Command line gives:

root@server: subscription-manager facts

Making request: GET http://169.254.169.254/metadata/instance?api-version=2021-02-01 {User-Agent: cloud-what/1.0, Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, Accept: /, Connection: keep-alive, Metadata: true}
Network error, unable to connect to server. Please see /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log for more information.

Logs show:

urllib3.exceptions.ReadTimeoutError: HTTPConnectionPool(host='169.254.169.254', port=80): Read timed out. (read timeout=10.0)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

requests.exceptions.ReadTimeout: HTTPConnectionPool(host='169.254.169.254', port=80): Read timed out. (read timeout=10.0)

Anyone have a solution or workaround that could help?

Thanks
