Error in registering Clone/Rebuild server to Red Hat Satellite 6.

Solution Verified - Updated -

Environment

  • Red Hat Satellite 6.x

Issue

Resolution

  • Run below command on the cloned machine to regenerate its UUID.

       # sh -c "echo '{\"dmi.system.uuid\": \"$(uuidgen)\"}' > /etc/rhsm/facts/dmi_system_uuid.facts

  • Register the machine again with Satellite.
