Administrators need to have a sense of all of the subscriptions allocated for their organization, altogether, regardless of whether the system is managed in RHN Classic or Certificate-based Red Hat Network. The Customer Portal provides a way of looking at the total consumed subscriptions.

In the Subscriptions Overview page, the Subscription Utilization area at the top gives the current count for every active subscription for the entire organization, and a total count of every used subscription, regardless of whether it is used in RHN Classic or Certificate-based Red Hat Network. These numbers are updated whenever the subscription count changes in the subscription server. (The subsequent Certificate-based Red Hat Network and RHN Classic sections gives usage subcounts based on system which are registered to that specific subscription service.)
