Description of problem: When registering a RHEL3 system using update --register, it gives me the following error: Problem registering system: Error Message: Registration failed: RHN Software Management service entitlements exhausted Error Class Code: 91 Error Class Info: Registration token unable to entitle system: maximum membership exceeded Explanation: An error has occurred while processing your request. If this problem persists please enter a bug report at bugzilla.redhat.com. If you choose to submit the bug report, please be sure to include details of what you were trying to do when this error occurred and details on how to reproduce this problem. While RHN shows: Update: 79 systems entitled, 6 available entitlements (85 total) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL3U7 How reproducible: Other systems (RHEL3,4) give me the same error message. Steps to Reproduce: 1. up2date --register 2. register with the right details (repeated couple of times) Actual results: No registering at all. Expected results: To be registered with RHN. Additional info:
Do you have a universal activation key that is set to management? If so, any systems registered by your org will attempt to entitle at that level, and if you're out of those slots, you might get the error you're receiving.

I don't know where i have to change the entitle level of activation keys, but indeed there was one universal activation key enabled.. Which, after removing, solved the whole problem at once! Thx for your help! With friendly regards, Metin de Vreugd
