Description Mike Khusid 2012-02-10 17:30:26 UTC
Description of problem:
I followed instructions from the section "14.12. Working with Subscription Asset Manager" and discovered that they are incomplete.

Additional steps are necessary:

1. Change prefix to /headpin/api
2. rhsm baseurl needs port 8080
3. repo_ca_cert has to point to a local SAM certificate CA, not global CA

Hey, Mike.

This was assigned to Jaromir, so it wasn't showing up in my queue. Sorry!

I checked the changes into the RHEL 5 Deployment Guide svn repo. I will check with Jaromir and see when those changes can go public.
