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.
Description of problem:
The error says that <name> doesn't match a valid repo ID and suggests to check "subscription-manager repos --list". The repo ID name is valid. It's just that the system has not been registered yet.

Actual results:
Expected results:
I would appreciate the error: "This system has no repositories available through subscriptions." or similar at step #2 instead of the current error message. Otherwise, I think that I used a wrong repo name.
Reproducer:
[root@hpe-dl380pgen8-02-vm-15 ~]# subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-7-server-openstack-13-rpms
Error: 'rhel-7-server-openstack-13-rpms' does not match a valid repository ID. Use "subscription-manager repos --list" to see valid repositories.

server type: This system is currently not registered.
subscription management server: 2.9.21-1
