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:

subscription-manager gui allows me to query the local system's facts without being registered, but the command line interface does not.


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

[root@jsefler-onprem01 ~]# rpm -qa | grep subscription-manager
subscription-manager-0.93.2-1.git.91.7f89664.fc14.x86_64
subscription-manager-gnome-0.93.2-1.git.91.7f89664.fc14.x86_64


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find a machine with subscription manager installed.
2. run the command 'subscription-manager facts' without being registered
  
Actual results:

[root@mgmt5 ~]# subscription-manager facts
Consumer not registered. Please register using --username and --password


Expected results:
The command displays your system facts.

Additional info:
The gui allows this, and there should be parity.
