2.3. Registering with a Subscription Management Application
By default, systems are registered against RHSM. The RHSM configuration must be updated to identify the alternate subscription service, and then the system can be registered as normal. This configuration can be updated manually or it can be automatically configured through a special RPM which is available with SAM.
The simplest way to register a system with a subscription management application:
- SAM has an RPM which contains the required certificate and automatically updates the server configuration. Installing the RPM of the SAM configuration from the SAM server is the simplest way to create the proper configuration.For example:
[root@server ~]# rpm -ivh http://sam.example.com/pub/candlepin-cert-consumer-latest.noarch.rpm
