  • Once the subscriptions are attached go ahead and refresh the manifest on the satellite server by running below command:
# rhn-satellite-activate -vvv --manifest-refresh

Root Cause

  • Manifest refresh was failing as the Satellite Profile present on customer portal under Subscription Allocation was not linked to any subscriptions.
