Description Megan Lewis 2015-02-19 04:28:53 UTC
Document URL: 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Satellite/6.0/html-single/Provisioning_Guide/index.html#sect-Red_Hat_Satellite-Provisioning_Guide-Registering_and_Configuring_the_Host-Registering_to_Red_Hat_Subscription_Management

Section Number and Name: 
1.3.1. Registering to Red Hat Subscription Management

Describe the issue: 
"In section 1.3.1, I think the instruction for registering should read:

    subscription-manager register --type=satellite

I have found that if I do not specify the type at this point, then the system gets registered in such a fashion that I am unable to download the subscription manifest because the system is not registered as a satellite system."

Based on this comment in the Provisioning Guide announcement. https://access.redhat.com/discussions/1294043

Hello


This is no longer needed. See:
