System is not properly subscribed
I am trying to attach subscription and I am getting message that "System is not properly subscribed".
$ subscription-manager subscribe --auto
Installed Product Current Status:
Product Name: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server
Status: Not Subscribed
Please help.

Hi Kevin,
What often happens if your system has more defined sockets than what is covered under your subscription ( 4 sockets with a 1-2 socket subscription for example) is that the 'auto' option cannot attach that by default.
You can review all available subscriptions by running:
# subscription-manager list --available --all
And you should be able to see the pool of subscriptions your looking to apply. This can be applied with:
# subscription-manager subscrive --pool=POOL_ID
If you don't see that, or you have additional questions regarding subscriptions, sockets, and what this all means give us a call at 1-888-GOREDHAT and we can help you further.

I have a different situation. subscription-manager list shows
Product Name: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server
Product ID: 69
Version: 6.5
Arch: x86_64
Status: Subscribed
Starts: xxxx
Ends: xxxxx
But the portal, even after 48 hours still shows "System is not properly subscribed". What gives?
Hello, I am curious did this ever get resolved. Reason why I ask is that I am encountering the same issue with my Satellite server. I am getting the error "Not Subscribed Installed products are not covered by attached subscriptions. Updates cannot be received" when I look at my system page on access.redhat.com.
However I believe that my Satellite is registered. So curious as to why I am registered via Satellite but not the server is not. I built this server from scratch and its 7.3 and registered it. I am having issues now trying to register my servers via the bootstrap.py script. I am thinking maybe this is possibly the problem.
Thank you,

Just to let everyone know I ended up opening a ticket with RedHat Support to get this issue resolved.
Hello!
I have the same problem. When I try:
sudo subscription-manager remove --all sudo subscription-manager unregister sudo subscription-manager clean
sudo subscription-manager register sudo subscription-manager refresh sudo subscription-manager attach --auto
I get the following message: Installed Product Current Status:
Product Name: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Status: Not Subscribed Unable to find available subscriptions for all your installed products.
So my question is; how can I be a subscriber?
All the best,
Michael

Hello I have a CentOS 7.4 I have registered it with RedHat but seems it is having the same issue..... I ran all the commands above but still having the same issue any help!!?
Having the same problem. Getting the "System is not properly subscribed" message
When I run
subscrption-manager remove --all
I get "1 subscription removed at server" but then it just sets there and doesn't come back.
When I then run
subscription-manager unregister
same thing - like it is waiting on a response from the server but never gets it.
Got through the first 4 commands, including getting a response that my system is now registered. On the "refresh" command, I am now waiting on a response that never comes back - even all night.
Hi Alan,
Well, in this case please contact Customer support, right as I told you yesterday - they should be able to help you. :)

Christian
