Advanced Search; Activation Keys - Red Hat NETWORK SATELLITE 5.1.0 Reference Manual

• Receive Notifications of Updates/Errata — This setting keeps you abreast of all advisories
pertaining to your systems. Any time an update is produced and released for a system under
your supervision, a notification is sent via email.
• Include system in Daily Summary — This setting includes the selected systems in a daily
summary of system events. (By default, all Management and Provisioning systems are
included in the summary.) These system events are actions that affect packages, such as
scheduled Errata Updates, system reboots, or failures to check in. In addition to including the
systems here, you must choose to receive email notifications in the Your Preferences page
of Your RHN. Refer to
these summaries only to verified email addresses.
• Automatic application of relevant Errata — This setting enables the automatic application
of Errata Updates to the selected systems. This means packages associated with Errata are
updated without any user intervention. Customers should note that Red Hat does not
recommend the use of the auto-update feature for production systems because conflicts
between packages and environments can cause system failures.
4.5. Advanced Search —
The System Search page allows you to search through your systems according to specific
criteria. These criteria include custom system information, system details, hardware, devices,
interface, networking, packages, and location. The activity selections (Days Since Last
Checkin, for instance) can be especially useful in finding and removing outdated System
Profiles. Type the keyword, select the criterion to search by, use the radio buttons to identify
whether you wish to query all systems or only those loaded in the System Set Manager, and
click the Search button. You may also select the Invert Result checkbox to list those systems
that do not match the criteria selected.
The results appear at the bottom of the page. For details about using the resulting system list,
refer to Section 4.2, "Systems".
4.6. Activation Keys —
RHN Management and Provisioning customers with the Activation Key Administrator role
(including Satellite Administrators) can generate activation keys through the RHN website.
These keys can then be used to register a Red Hat Enterprise Linux system, entitle the system
to an RHN service level and subscribe the system to specific channels and system groups
through the command line utility
