across systems.
4.6.1. Managing Activation Keys
To generate an activation key:
1. Select Systems => Activation Keys from the top and left navigation bars.
2. Click the create new key link at the top-right corner.
Warning
In addition to the fields listed below, RHN Satellite Server customers may also
populate the Key field itself. This user-defined string of characters can then be
supplied with
rhnreg_ks
to register client systems with the Satellite. Do not
insert commas in the key. All other characters are accepted. Commas are
problematic since they are the separator used when including two or more
activation keys at once. Refer to Section 4.6.2, “Using Multiple Activation Keys at
Once — ” for details.
3. Provide the following information:
• Description — User-defined description to identify the generated activation key.
• Usage Limit — The maximum number of registered systems that can be registered to the
activation key at any one time. Leave blank for unlimited use. Deleting a system profile
reduces the usage count by one and registering a system profile with the key increases the
usage count by one.
• Base Channel — The primary channel for the key. Selecting nothing will enable you to
select from all child channels, although systems can be subscribed to only those that are
applicable.
• Add-on Entitlements — The supplemental entitlements for the key, which includes
Monitoring, Provisioning, Virtualization, and Virtualization Platform. All systems will be
given these entitlements with the key.
• Universal default — Whether or not this key should be considered the primary activation
key for your organization.
Click Create Key.
