6.4.2.8.1.7. System Details ⇒ Details ⇒ Reactivation —
A System Profile-specific activation key. This allows you to create an activation key en-
compassing this system's ID, history, groups, and channels. You may then use this key
only once with the
all Red Hat Network settings. Refer to Section 2.5 Registering with Activation Keys for in-
structions. Unlike typical activation keys, which are not associated with a specific system
ID, keys created here do not show up within the Activation Keys page.
Warning
When kickstarting a system with its existing RHN profile, the kickstart profile uses the
system-specific activation key created here to reregister the system and return its other
RHN settings. For this reason, you should not regenerate, delete, or use this key (with
) while a profile-based kickstart is in progress. If you do, the kickstart will fail.
