Description

Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1169390
Description of problem:
We are running RHEV with RHEL hosts as hypervisors. The RHEL hosts are registered in the Satellite 6, so they have associated content_host records named after their host names.
When connecting virt-who to probe this RHEV installation, virt-who will create an additional set of content_hosts, this time named with a UUID. This second set of content hosts should in my opinion not be created but virt-who should rather fold in it's findings into the existing content_hosts.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite-6.0.6 on RHEL7

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Register a RHEL host acting as a RHEV hypervisor into a satellite 6
2. Enable virt-who
3. Do note how an extra content host has shown up.

Expected results:
virt-who should add it's findings into the already existing content host
