  • "System is not properly subscribed" contiuously appears

    Posted on

    I have been trying to subscribe my system, but "System is not properly subscribed" contiuously appears.
    I've done this several times, and below is an extract from my commandline right after removing the subscription in the customer portal.
    (I used "X"s for Username, id, and Pool Id for privacy reasons).
    This is RHEL7 system, and I'm using Dell precision t7910.

    [root@localhost aaa]#  subscription-manager register --force
    Username: XXXX
    Password: 
    The system has been registered with id: XXXXXX
    
    [root@localhost aaa]# subscription-manager list --available
    +-------------------------------------------+
    Available Subscriptions
    +-------------------------------------------+
    Subscription Name: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation, Standard (L3-only)
    SKU: RH0989838F3
    Pool Id: XXXXXXXX
    Quantity: 1
    Service Level: Standard
    Service Type: L3
    System Type: Physical
    
    [root@localhost aaa]# subscription-manager subscribe --pool=XXXXXXXX
    Successfully attached a subscription for: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation, Standard (L3-only)
    
    [root@localhost aaa]# subscription-manager list
    +-------------------------------------------+
    Installed Product Status
    +-------------------------------------------+
    Product Name: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server
    Product ID: 69
    Version: 7.0
    Arch: x86_64
    Status: System is not properly subscribed
    Starts:
    

    As troubleshooting guides note, I checked rhsmcertd state, socket numbers, and time in the system as follows.
    I extracted lines from "chkconfig" and "lscpu" that seem relative to this problem.
    Time display noted in "Local time" matches the actual time in Tokyo.

    [aaa@localhost ~]$ chkconfig rhsmcertd
    enabled
    
    [aaa@localhost ~]$ lscpu
        Socket(s):              2
    
    [aaa@localhost ~]$ timedatectl
              Local time: Mon 2016-04-11 19:51:58 JST
          Universal time: Mon 2016-04-11 10:51:58 UTC
                Timezone: Asia/Tokyo (JST, +0900)
             NTP enabled: yes
        NTP synchronized: yes
         RTC in local TZ: no
              DST active: n/a
    

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Best regards.
