Description John Sefler 2012-02-23 15:09:57 UTC
Description of problem:

# subscription-manager --help | grep subscription-manager
Usage: subscription-manager [options] MODULENAME --help

                            ^^^^^^^^^
Besides "--help", what options are available to subscription-manager? none
I suggest changing the subscription-manager usage statement to this:
Usage: subscription-manager MODULENAME [MODULE-OPTIONS] [--help]


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jsefler-r63-server ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager
subscription-manager-0.99.8-1.git.13.1ecb596.el6.x86_64





Additional info:
[root@jsefler-r63-server ~]# subscription-manager --help


Usage: subscription-manager [options] MODULENAME --help
