      3. What is the nature and description of the request?

      When you change the content view presented to a host, a `subscription-manager refresh` is
      required to align the host with the new content.

      This request is to automate this.

      4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

      After changing CV's on a host, a manual procedure is required to perform a
      `subscription-manager refresh`. Whilst remote execution could be used to do
      this, not all customers want or need REX.

      Performing this manually across all hosts is tiresome and an unnecessary
      administrative overhead

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

      A suggested method to do this is by sending a request to the host for (potentially)
      katello-agent to action.

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

      Change the CV presented to a host, and observe that the subscription-manager refresh is
      automatically performed.

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

      None found.

      8. Does the customer have any specific timeline dependencies and which release would they like to target (i.e. RHEL5, RHEL6)?

      ASAP

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

      no

      10. List any affected packages or components.

      Sat6, katello-agent

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

      yes
