Chapter 2. Subscription management with Red Hat Satellite
With Red Hat Satellite, you can track usage of software subscriptions and assign subscriptions according to your needs.
2.1. Simple content access (SCA) in Red Hat Satellite
Simple Content Access (SCA) in Satellite simplifies management of software entitlements. With SCA, you can add valid subscriptions to a subscription allocation or manifest and refresh within Satellite. Therefore, with SCA enabled, you do not need to attach subscriptions individually to hosts.
Note
Simple Content Access (SCA) replaces the previous entitlement-based method of subscription management. New organizations default to having SCA enabled. Entitlement-based subscription management is deprecated. For more information, see Release notes.
