If you cannot use the subscription management tool, I recommend using the (seemingly poorly documented) suse_register command:
suse_register -a regcode-sles=<your key> -a email=<your novell cc email> Zach ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lionel B Dyck" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 1:21:12 PM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: Re: Registering a SLES zlinux server with novell?

Sent by: Linux on 390 Port <[email protected]> Lionel, Back when we first ran into that problem, it would start up a text based browser and you could complete the registration. However, with the number of systems, we ended up using Novell's subscription management tool.
