4.6. Registering a System to an Organization
RHN Satellite now supports the Organizations feature, which allows administrators to appropriate software and system entitlements across various organizations, as well as control an organization's access to systems management. Systems can now be registered directly to an organization.
To register a system to an organization on a satellite, you can use the username and password of an account that is created within that organization. For example, if there is an organization called Sales Team, with a username
salesadmin and password abc123, using these credentials assures that a system is registered to the proper organization.
For example:
rhnreg_ks --user=salesadmin --password=abc123
Important
The
--orgid option (for RHEL 4 and 5) and the --orgpassword option (in RHEL 4) in the rhnreg_ks command are not related to the Organizations feature and should not be used in the context of registering systems to organizations.
For more information about the Organizations feature, refer to Section 7.11.1, “Admin ⇒ Organizations”.
