Chapter 8. Managing Red Hat subscriptions with cloud-init

Example 1

• You can use the auto-attach and service-level options:

  Under rh_subscription, add your username and password, set auto-attach to True, and set service-level to self-support.

  rh_subscription:
    username: sample@redhat.com
    password: 'mypassword'
    auto-attach: True
    service-level: self-support

  Copy to Clipboard
  Note

  The service-level option requires that you use the auto-attach option.

Example 2

• You can use the activation-key and org options:

  Under rh_subscription, add your activation key and org number and set auto-attach to True.

  rh_subscription:
    activation-key: example_key
    org: 12345
    auto-attach: True

  Copy to Clipboard

Example 3

• You can add a subscription pool:

  Under rh_subscription, add your username, password, and pool number.

  rh_subscription:
    username: sample@redhat.com
    password: 'password'
    add-pool: XYZ01234567

  Copy to Clipboard
  Note

  This sample is the equivalent of the subscription-manager attach --pool=XYZ01234567 command.

Example 4

• You can set a server host name in the /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf file:

  Under rh_subscription, add your username, password, server-hostname, and set auto-attach to True.

  rh_subscription:
    username: sample@redhat.com
    password: 'password'
    server-hostname: test.example.com
    auto-attach: True
