15.5. Attaching Subscriptions from a Subscription Asset Manager Activation Key

A local Subscription Asset Manager can pre-configure subscriptions to use for a system, and that pre-configured set of subscriptions is identified by an activation key. That key can then be used to attach those subscriptions on a local system.

The Subscription Asset Manager activation key can be used as part of the registration process for the new system:

# subscription-manager register --username=jsmith --password=secret --org="IT Dept" --activationkey=abcd1234

If there are multiple organizations, it is still necessary to specify the organization for the system. That information is not defined in the activation key.
