Description Jared MORGAN 2014-07-16 22:46:09 UTC
Description of problem:

I have been receiving errata updates from RHN, and decided to visit the "How to unsubscribe" linked at the bottom of each email.

Upon investigation, I found an issue with the following section:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Network/5.0.0/html-single/Reference_Guide/index.html#s1-sm-logging-in

The current text suggests:

Use a web browser to navigate to http://rhn.redhat.com. RHN displays the login page shown below unless one of two things is true:
You have recently logged into your account at http://www.redhat.com.
You have recently either logged into RHN or recently visited the new account verification page.
If you have recently logged into http://rhn.redhat.com or http://www.redhat.com, you are automatically authenticated and redirected to the Your RHN page.

This isn't true however...

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

5.0.0

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load rhn.redhat.com in a browser
2. Provide Login credentials
3. Observe Behavior

Actual results:

You are initially taken to the access.redhat.com/management portal, and not RHN Home. I can not find a way to get to the specific screen pictured in the section. It could be that it is outdated. 


Expected results:

The screen depicted in the procedure reflects the current state of subscription management on the Customer Portal

As you may already be aware, Red Hat is transitioning from the Red Hat Network (RHN) hosted interface to the Red Hat Subscription Management (RHSM) interface in July 2017. Red Hat has invested in and seen success from RHN for many years, and used that experience to build more robust technologies like RHSM. 
 
If you have not yet migrated your RHN systems to RHSM or you are a Red Hat Satellite customer, please review the information from. https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management#migration. 
 
Since we are shutting down RHN, no further actions will be taken with this bug or enhancement request.  You can find additional information at RHSM product page (https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management).  If you have further questions, please contact support (https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management#support).
