2.3. Registering a System to Subscription Asset Manager
- Install the configuration RPM to configure Red Hat Subscription Manager to point to the Subscription Asset Manager instance. Every Subscription Asset Manager server has a configuration RPM available at a standard URL:
http://sam_server_hostname/pub/candlepin-cert-consumer.noarch.rpm
For example:[root@server ~]# rpm -ivh http://sam.example.com/pub/candlepin-cert-consumer.noarch.rpm
- Register the system using the
subscription-managercommand. The organization name is required; if the username or password are not passed with the command, then the command prompts for them. Using--auto-attachto apply subscriptions automatically is not required, but it simplifies setting up the new system.[root@server ~]# subscription-manager register --username=jsmith --password=secret --org="IT Dept" --auto-attach
This command must be run as root.
