The rhnsd.service fails to start on boot on the RHEL7 KVM image?
Issue
On a clean boot of the rhel-guest-image-7 downloaded from directly from Red Hat's site, the following error is displayed:
Failed to start LSB: Starts the Spacewalk Daemon.
See 'systemctl status rhnsd.service' for details.
Upon further inspection after boot the following is seen:
# systemctl status rhnsd.service
