and removing outdated System Profiles. Type the keyword, select the criterion to search by, use the
radio buttons to identify whether you wish to query all systems or only those loaded in the
System Set
Manager
, and click the
Search
button. You may also select the
Invert Result
checkbox to list those
systems that do
not
match the criteria selected.
The results appear at the bottom of the page. For details about using the resulting system list, refer to
Section 7.4.2, “Systems”
.
7.4.6. Activation Keys —
RHN Management and Provisioning customers with the Activation Key Administrator role (including
Satellite Administrators) can generate activation keys through the RHN website. These keys can then
be used to register a Red Hat Enterprise Linux system, entitle the system to an RHN service level
and subscribe the system to specific channels and system groups through the command line utility
rhnreg_ks
. Refer to
Section 4.5, “Registering with Activation Keys”
for instructions on use.
Note
System-specific activation keys created through the
Reactivation
subtab of the
System
Details
page are not part of this list because they are not reusable across systems.
