I believe that is what allows you to have unlimited virtuals on that server. You will need to remove the Vrtualization and add Virtualization Platform. You may also have to change the channel subscriptions... Kevin

I have three Update Base Entitlements assigned to 3 physical servers. Each of them has a Virtualization Entitlement assigned to it. I have 2 available (2 total) Virtualization Platform Entitlements. So far I have not been able to assign any of the Virtual Platform Entitlements to anything. I have not yet succeeded in registering a VM. when I try: rhn-register --nox it asks for: | Installation Number: ________________________________________ | | Example: XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX | So far all I have come up with is a 16 character hex string. If I add dashes its still too short and doesn't work. I did try the 16 character hex string as an argument to a key command in the kickstart for creating the VM that I am trying to register using the "rhn-register --nox" and that appeared to work. Have created the VM and successfully run a kickstart but when I: yum update it chokes with: # yum update Loading "installonlyn" plugin Loading "rhnplugin" plugin This system is not registered with RHN. RHN support will be disabled. Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories No Repositories Available to Set Up Reading repository metadata in from local files No Packages marked for Update/Obsoletion Is there a good overview document on how all this works? -- Drew Einhorn
