      1. Proposed title of this feature request
      [RFE] Provide a functionality to check the support status for appstream packages via Satellite

      3. What is the nature and description of the request?
      Satellite does not offer any information about the support status for packages that are part
      of a module. If Insights can not be used the customer needs to check our website manually to
      verify if an Appstream module is still supported.

      There is no functionality in Satellite to verify the support status there.

      4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)
      Packages for products that became EOL are installed and the support status for them is unknown
      to Satellite without a lengthy manual process to check which packages need to get updated.

      5. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)

      • Satellite should gather the support information for the Appstream packages from [1]
      • Satellite should then identify if any packages from EOL modules are installed on hosts
      • Satellite should then display a warning for the affected Content Hosts

      6. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.

      • Satellite should display the EOL dates as part of the Content => Module Stream list
      • Satellite should display a warning in Content Host => Overview page if any module streams are EOL

      7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla?

      • Unknown

      8. Does the customer have any specific timeline dependencies and which release would they like to target (i.e. RHEL8, RHEL9)?

      • RHEL 8 + 9
      • Satellite 6.15

      9. Is the sales team involved in this request and do they have any additional input?

      • Yes

      10. List any affected packages or components.

      • Unknown

      11. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?

      • Yes
