6.2. Setting Service Levels Through the Command Line
A general service level preference can be set using the
service-level --set command.
Example 4. Setting a Service Level Preference
First, list the available service levels for the system, using the
--list option with the service-level command.
[root@server ~]# subscription-manager service-level --list
+-------------------------------------------+
Available Service Levels
+-------------------------------------------+
Standard
None
Premium
Self-Support
Then, set the desired level for the system.
[root@server ~]# subscription-manager service-level --set=self-support Service level set to: self-support
The current setting for the local system is shown with the
--show option:
[root#server ~]# subscription-manager service-level --show Current service level: self-support
A service level preference can be defined when a subscription operation is being run (such as registering a system or attaching subscriptions after registration). This can be used to override a system preference. Both the
register and attach commands have the --servicelevel option to set a preference for that action.
Example 5. Autoattaching Subscriptions with a Premium Service Level
[root#server ~]# subscription-manager attach --auto --servicelevel Premium Service level set to: Premium Installed Product Current Status: ProductName: RHEL 6 for Workstations Status: Subscribed
Note
The
--servicelevel option requires the --auto-attach option (for register) or --auto option (for attach). It cannot be used when attaching a specified pool or when importing a subscription.
