4.3. System Details: Viewing System Information
Clicking the system name in the Units > Type list opens the details page for that system. The details shows a list of subscriptions, system facts, and other subscription settings.
Figure 9. The System Details
The System Facts tab shows system information that has been gathered about the system. This information can be about the hardware, the architecture, system settings, and operating system information. The type of information varies depending on the platform, whether it is a virtual or physical machine, operating system version, and system settings. The system facts are used to determine the compatible subscriptions which are available to the system, meaning subscriptions for that architecture, hardware, and operating system version.

Note
If a system is manually added to the inventory through the Customer Portal Subscription Management, then only a limited set of system facts are displayed, dependent on what was entered about the system when it was registered.
Systems which are registered using the local Red Hat Subscription Manager tools can have a great many system facts listed, dependent on the result of system scans performed by the on-premise Red Hat Subscription Manager system service.
