9.1.1. Using Red Hat Subscription Management on Node Hosts
Procedure 9.1. To Configure Node Host Subscriptions Using Red Hat Subscription Management:
- Use the
subscription-manager register
command to register your Red Hat Enterprise Linux system.Example 9.1. Registering the System
#
subscription-manager register
Username: Password: The system has been registered with id: 3tghj35d1-7c19-4734-b638-f24tw8eh6246 - Use the
subscription-manager list --available
command and locate any desired OpenShift Enterprise subscription pool IDs in the output of available subscriptions on your account.Example 9.2. Finding Subscription Pool IDs
#
subscription-manager list --available
+-------------------------------------------+ Available Subscriptions +-------------------------------------------+ Subscription Name: OpenShift Enterprise SKU: MCT#### Pool Id: Example_3cf49557013d418c52992690 Quantity: 1 Service Level: Standard Service Type: L1-L3 Multi-Entitlement: No Ends: 01/01/2020 System Type: Physical Subscription Name: JBoss Enterprise Application Platform for OpenShift Enterprise SKU: SYS#### Pool Id: Example_3cf49557013d418c52182681 Quantity: 1 Service Level: Premium Service Type: L1-L3 Multi-Entitlement: No Ends: 01/01/2020 System Type: PhysicalThe "OpenShift Enterprise" subscription is the only subscription required for basic node operation. Additional subscriptions, detailed in Section 9.1, “Configuring Node Host Entitlements”, are optional and only required based on your planned usage of OpenShift Enterprise. For example, locate the pool ID for the "JBoss Enterprise Application Platform for OpenShift Enterprise" subscription if you plan to install the JBoss EAP premium xPaaS cartridge. - Attach the desired subscription(s). Replace
pool-id
in the following command with your relevantPool Id
value(s) from the previous step:#
subscription-manager attach --pool pool-id --pool pool-id
- Enable the
Red Hat OpenShift Enterprise 2.2 Application Node
channel:#
subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-6-server-ose-2.2-node-rpms
- Verify that the
yum repolist
command lists the enabled channel(s).Example 9.3. Verifying the Enabled Node Channel
#
yum repolist
repo id repo name rhel-server-6-ose-2.2-node-rpms Red Hat OpenShift Enterprise 2.2 Application Node (RPMs)OpenShift Enterprise node hosts require a customizedyum
configuration to install correctly. For continued steps to correctly configureyum
, see Section 9.2, “Configuring Yum on Node Hosts”.
9.1.2. Using Red Hat Network Classic on Node Hosts
Note
Procedure 9.2. To Configure Node Host Subscriptions Using Red Hat Network Classic:
- Use the
rhnreg_ks
command to register your Red Hat Enterprise Linux system. Replaceusername
andpassword
in the following command with your Red Hat Network account credentials:#
rhnreg_ks --username username --password password
- Enable the
Red Hat OpenShift Enterprise 2.2 Node
channel:#
rhn-channel -a -c rhel-x86_64-server-6-ose-2.2-node
- Verify that the
yum repolist
command lists the enabled channel(s).Example 9.4. Verifying the Enabled Node Channel
#
yum repolist
repo id repo name rhel-x86_64-server-6-ose-2.2-node Red Hat OpenShift Enterprise 2.2 Node - x86_64
