help with process in using this module

[brettswift]

Hopefully you don't mind the question here.

We're new to RH Satellite 6 and wondering how you manage initially subscribing a server.

The registration command doesn't pass in a serverurl, which ends up sending this to the RH Customer Portal. I'm assuming in your server clone process there is a script or something that configures this server to run against your on-premise Satellite server. Is that true?

ex:

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

It should be configured to check in with your Satellite server with the
configfile: /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf

It is managed, but the content is not (although there is a template).

Problem is, i created this module for a client years ago and I dont have
any way to test updates. I'm in the process of moving it over to Puppet
Community for maintenance.

As said by @gerapeldoorn the rhsm.conf is managed as file resource. BTW, I just realized there is no dependency defined from exec['RHSM-register'].
Alternatively subscription-manager register can take a --serverurl= option.

@brettswift #57 should fix your issue. I'm using the rhsm module for registering the Satellite 6 server against subscription.rhsm.redhat.com and as well for registering the hosts against Satellite 6.
