# subscription-manager register
- Find the
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ServerandRed Hat Virtualizationsubscription pools and note down the pool IDs.# subscription-manager list --available
- Use the pool IDs located in the previous step to attach the entitlements to the system:
# subscription-manager attach --pool=pool_id
Note
To find out what subscriptions are currently attached, run:# subscription-manager list --consumed
To list all enabled repositories, run:# yum repolist
- Disable all existing repositories:
# subscription-manager repos --disable=*
- Enable the required repositories:
# subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-7-server-rpms # subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-7-server-supplementary-rpms # subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-7-server-rhv-4.1-rpms # subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-7-server-rhv-4-tools-rpms # subscription-manager repos --enable=jb-eap-7-for-rhel-7-server-rpms
