Red Hat ENTERPRISE LINUX 5 - DEPLOYMENT Deployment Manual page 175

After activating your product, register it with Red Hat Network to receive Errata Updates. The
registration process gathers information about the system that is required to notify you of updates. For
example, a list of packages installed on the system is compiled so you are only notified about updates
that are relevant to your system.
The first time the system is booted, the Software Update Setup Assistant prompts you to register.
If you did not register then, select Applications (the main menu on the panel) > System Tools >
Package Updater on your desktop to start the registration process. Alternately, execute the command
yum update from a shell prompt.
