How to register hosts configured with the same hostname to satellite?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • The application is running in main site. The DR has an exact replica. Same hostnames are used in the main/DR sites. Due to application licensing restrictions and backup/recovery procedures, hostnames can't be changed.
  • While trying to register DR hosts, the main site hosts are deleted from satellite and only DR hosts are visible in satellite.

Environment

  • Red Hat Satellite 6.x
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x, 7.x, 8.x, 9.x.
