Hi, When kickstarting a system it gets automatically registered by the use of the cobbler snippet 'redhat_register'. Is there a way to disable this completely? The main reason for my question is that cobbler adds a default key to all systems using the "Red Hat Management Key" variable, and we don't want that. I've tried to edit the cobbler profiles to remove that auto-generated key, but I don't seem to be able to do that. We're adding our own activation keys in a post script and re-registering the system, which causes the system to be registered twice. Once with the by cobbler auto generated key, and once with our keys. /Jonas _______________________________________________ [Byron Pezan] I think you should be able to set 'redhat_management_type' to 'off' in the cobbler config file. There are a couple other RHEL key settings in there as well. You may need to restart cobbler after making any config changes. Pulled directly from /etc/cobbler/settings ------ # Are you using a Red Hat management platform in addition to Cobbler? # Cobbler can help you register to it. Choose one of the following: # "off" : I'm not using Red Hat Network, Satellite, or Spacewalk # "hosted" : I'm using Red Hat Network # "site" : I'm using Red Hat Satellite Server or Spacewalk # You will also want to read: https://fedorahosted.org/cobbler/wiki/TipsForRhn redhat_management_type: "hosted" ------ You might also be able to get away with commenting or removing the 'redhat_register' snippet from your kickstart template(s), however I personally would consider this option to be a less desirable solution. byron _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
