The tooling hits separate systems, so register is showing that you are
registered, but only because the RHN tooling is configured and reports it's
registered. Attach tries to attach subscriptions from RHSM and will fail
because the RHSM system does not manage the system.

For the host subscription/entitlement information to be propagated into the
container, it would either require the host be subscribed to Satellite 6 or
the hosted subscription management service.

Possible options I can think of off the top of my head:
- Subscribe OpenShift systems directly to Subscription Manager, instead of
Satellite 5.5
- Access packages through a reposync'd mirror:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/9892, and configure the mirror as part
of the container build.

I'd suggest contacting support and/or account manager, since they may know
of other options available and could potentially help advocate for adding
Satellite 5 support.

 subscription-manager is used to register your host to your local
 satellite as well. How are you patching your hosts if they are not
 registered?

I went to the link: "https://access.redhat.com/rhn-to-rhsm;. It says
satellite users should be unaffected. I'm a little confused. I'm using
satellite, but when I type subscription-manager register it says i'm
registered. However, when I run "subscription-manager attach --auto", it
spins for a while then says I am not registered. We pay a lot of money for
Openshift Enterprise and it will not work without upgrading our entire
satellite system? Right now we are on version 5.5 of satellite. There is no
way to make this work with our existing setup?

 How is openshift supposed to work with satellite instead of
 subscription-manager?

I don't think this is currently possible, the entitlement/subscription
mapping is done through a set of plugins that are specific to
subscription-manager. With RHN Classic approaching end of life (
https://access.redhat.com/rhn-to-rhsm) I don't really see that changing,
but you could always reach out to support to file a formal RFE.
