      On Satellite-capsule 6.11.2 rhel 8, receive this error when a content host registered to the Capsule attempts to install a package:
      ~~~
      Sep 27 12:27:34 oldname pulpcore-content[523678]: ssl.SSLCertVerificationError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: Hostname mismatch, certificate is not valid for 'oldname.example.com'. (_ssl.c:1131)
      ~~~

      Looking into this, we find that all remotes on the Capsules are correct - they reference the correct new name:
      ~~~
      From Sat to Cap:

      • # curl --cert /etc/pki/katello/certs/pulp-client.crt --key /etc/pki/katello/private/pulp-client.key https://capsule.example.com/pulp/api/v3/remotes/rpm/rpm/ | python -m json.tool | grep \"url\"\:
        "url": "https://newname.example.com/pulp/content/ghost/prod/rhel9/content/dist/rhel9/9/x86_64/appstream/os/"
        "url": "https://newname.example.com/pulp/content/ghost/prod/rhel9/content/dist/rhel9/9/x86_64/baseos/os/"
        "url": "https://newname.example.com/pulp/content/ghost/prod/rhel9/content/dist/layered/rhel9/x86_64/sat-client/6/os/"
        "url": "https://newname.example.com/pulp/content/ghost/prod/rhel8/content/dist/rhel8/8/x86_64/appstream/os/"
        "url": "https://newname.example.com/pulp/content/ghost/prod/rhel8/content/dist/rhel8/8/x86_64/baseos/os/"
        "url": "https://newname.example.com/pulp/content/ghost/prod/rhel8/content/dist/layered/rhel8/x86_64/sat-tools/6.10/os/"
        "url": "https://newname.example.com/pulp/content/ghost/prod/SmallCV/content/dist/rhel/server/7/7Server/x86_64/sat-tools/6.6/os/"
        ...

      However, if we look at the remoteartifacts, plenty of them still reference the old Satellite name:
      ~~~
      On Capsule:

      • # su - postgres -c "psql pulpcore -c \"select url from core_remoteartifact;\"" | grep oldname.example.com | wc
        some number (not 0)
      • # su - postgres -c "psql pulpcore -c \"select url from core_remoteartifact;\"" | grep newname.example.com | wc
        some number (also not 0)
        ~~~

      It looks like after changing the Satellite hostame, and subsequent needed changes on the Capsules, like successful syncs, the url on remotes themselves are changed as we expect, but urls on remoteartifacts are not updated. This means that any content previously synced on the Capsule(s) before the change will look for the wrong Satellite name to download the rpm from.

      Expectation here would be that after changing the Satellite hostname, all necessary changes are made on Capsule side to change all content to reference the new Satellite name.

      To reproduce:

      • Install Satellite and Capsule
      • Add content to Satellite, sync to Capsule
      • Change Satellite hostname
      • Sync Capsule to find that remotes are all updated correctly
      • Add more content to Satellite, sync that content to both Sat and Cap
      • Check remote artifacts to find that there are references to both the old and new Satellite name
