Using Red Hat On-demand
On-demand images are purchased from a Red Hat Certified Cloud and Service Provider. These images can only be used within the cloud environment and are for cloud instances. Red Hat supplies updates to these images to the provider, who makes them available to their customers via Red Hat Update Infrastructure. On-demand customers should not register these images with Red Hat Subscription Management. Learn more about On-demand Subscriptions.
