• 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
Section 6.3.2, "Your Preferences"
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.
6.4.5. 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can be especially useful in finding and removing outdated System Profiles.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 6.4.2,

and subscribe the system to specific channels and system groups through the command line utility
rhnreg_ks. Refer to
6.4.6.1. Managing Activation Keys
