RHEL systems lack product information

by Orion Poplawski

First time trying to install RHEL with cobber - been doing it for a long with with Fedora/SL. Downloaded the RHEL 6.5 DVD and imported it into cobbler. Install goes fine. However, trying to register the system has problems because it doesn't have any product information: The system has been registered with ID: XXXXX No products installed. My understanding is that you should see something like: Installed Product Current Status: Product Name: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Status: Subscribed Similar to https://access.redhat.com/site/solutions/100423 I lack anything in /etc/pki/product/ and /var/lib/rhsm/productid.js is empty. Anyone know how this is supposed to be populated? -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA, Boulder/CoRA Office FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.nwra.com
