Now you should configure installation media which will be used for provisioning.
Note that if you don't configure it properly, host provisioning won't work until you configure installation media manually.

Enter RHEL repo path:
1. Set RHEL repo path (http or https URL): http://
2. Proceed with configuration
3. Skip this step (provisioning won't work)

Path:  http://download.eng.tlv.redhat.com/pub/rhel/released/RHEL-7/7.0/Server/x86_64/os/

Enter RHEL repo path:
1. Set RHEL repo path (http or https URL): http://download.eng.tlv.redhat.com/pub/rhel/released/RHEL-7/7.0/Server/x86_64/os/
2. Proceed with configuration
3. Skip this step (provisioning won't work)

Enter your subscription manager credentials:
1. Subscription manager username:        
2. Subscription manager password:        
3. Comma separated repositories:         rhel-7-server-openstack-6.0-rpms
4. Subscription manager pool (recommended): 
5. Subscription manager proxy hostname:  
6. Subscription manager proxy port:      
7. Subscription manager proxy username:  
8. Subscription manager proxy password:  
9. Proceed with configuration
10. Skip this step (provisioning won't subscribe your machines)

Didn't reproduce on my setup, using the answer file:

Comment 4 Mike Burns 2015-01-19 13:00:11 UTC 
This is, at worst, a release note.  The permission denied errors are spurious and don't impact anything.
Comment 5 Alexander Chuzhoy 2015-01-29 22:41:48 UTC 
Reproduced with scratch LiveCD build.
Environment:

Comment 6 Mike Burns 2015-04-30 16:15:38 UTC 
this has no negative consequences and is very intermittent.
