DESCRIPTION

16       rhn-satellite-activate activates (using  an  RHN  Certificate)  an  RHN
17       Satellite  Server. The RHN Cert is (a) checked for sanity, (b) inserted
18       into the local database, and (c) inserted into the remote database.
19
20       NOTE: activation generally occurs upon RHN Satellite installation. This
21       is  useful  for pushing a new RHN Certificate and fixing issues related
22       to account certificate issues.
23

OPTIONS

25       --systemid PATH
26              (FOR TESTING ONLY) alternative systemid path/filename. The  sys‐
27              tem default is used if not specified.
28
29       --rhn-cert PATH
30              new  RHN  certificate  path/filename  (default  is  /etc/syscon‐
31              fig/rhn/rhn-entitlement-cert.xml - the saved RHN cert).
32
33       --no-ssl
34              (FOR TESTING ONLY) disable SSL.
35
36       --sanity-only
37              confirm certificate sanity. Does not activate the RHN  Satellite
38              locally or remotely.
39
40       --disconnected
41              activate locally, but not on remote RHN servers,
42
43       --ignore-expiration
44              execute regardless of the expiration of the RHN Certificate (not
45              recommended).
46
47       --ignore-version-mismatch
48              execute regardless of version mismatch of existing and new  cer‐
49              tificate.
50
51
52       -v | --verbose
53              be verbose (accumulable: -vvv means "be *really* verbose").
