Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: subscription-manager identity was reporting a database id for the "org id" that was then being misinterpreted by the user as an "org key". Consequence: the user would try to register with --org option passing in an unknown value Fix: changed the value reported by subscription-manager identity to actually report the org key as the "org id". Result: user can now register using the reported org id value

Comment 6 John Sefler 2012-09-07 17:48:34 UTC 
The value displayed for the org id has been changed from the schema id to the org's key value.  The key is more useful to the user than the id.  The key value is what should be supplied as the value for the --org option when registering.
