Figure 7.6. Activation Keys
After creating the unique key, it appears in the list of activation keys along with the number of times it
has been used. Note that only Activation Key Administrators can see this list. At this point, you may
associate child channels and groups with the key so that systems registered with it automatically
subscribe to them.
To change information about a key, such as the channels or groups, click its description in the key
list, make your modifications in the appropriate tab, and click the
Update Key
button. To disassociate
channels and groups from a key, deselect them in their respective menus by
Ctrl
-clicking their
highlighted names. To remove a key entirely, click the
delete key
link in the top-right corner of the edit
page.
A system may be set to subscribe to a base channel during registration with an activation key.
However, if the activation key specifies a base channel that is not compatible with the operating
system of the systems, the registration fails. For example, a Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS v.4 for x86
system cannot register with an Activation Key that specifies a Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES v.4 for x86
base channel. A system is always allowed to subscribe to a custom base channel.
To disable system activations with a key, unselect the corresponding checkbox under the
Enabled
column in the key list. The key can be re-enabled by selecting the checkbox. After making these
changes, click the
Update Keys
button on the bottom right-hand corner of the page.
