6.3.4. Activation Keys
RHN Enterprise customers can generate activation keys through the RHN website. Each unique key
can then be used to register the RHL system, entitle the system to RHN Enterprise, subscribe the
system to specific channels, and subscribe the system to RHN system groups through the command
line utility
rhnreg_ks
from the
rhn_register
package. Thus, channel and group subscriptions
can be automated along with registration, without having to run the
Red Hat Network Registration
Client
on each client system and entitle each system through the RHN website.
Note
Version 2.7.20 or higher of the
rhn_register
package is required. It is highly recommended that you
use the latest version before using activation keys.
To generate an activation key:
1. Select
Your RHN
=>
Activation Keys
from the left navigation bar.
2. Click the
Generate Activation Key
button.
3. Provide the following information:
•
Description

•
