RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

^^ FAILURE: expected feedback stating a successful registration and attached subscriptions from the valid org and activationkey

Now let's verify the fix in the next comment with a corrected version of subscription-manager package...

Verifying Version...
[root@jsefler-6 ~]# subscription-manager version
server type: This system is currently not registered.

[root@jsefler-6 ~]# subscription-manager register --org="Default_Organization" --activationkey="ak-rhel-6-x86_64"

[root@jsefler-6 ~]# subscription-manager identity

[root@jsefler-6 ~]# subscription-manager list --consumed | grep "Subscription Name:"
Subscription Name: Red Hat Employee Subscription
Subscription Name: Agent
Subscription Name: Forge


NOTE: The three subscriptions attached came from the activationkey that was created during the setup of the Satellite 6 server (details not shown).


VERIFIED: register with activationkey successfully attaches expected subscription from the activation key and registers to the expected org and environment.
Comment 8 John Sefler 2014-09-09 16:12:23 UTC 
Additional Sanity Testing....
Let's also verify that we can still register to the org and environment without the activationkey...

[root@jsefler-6 ~]# subscription-manager unregister
System has been unregistered.
