Post Deployment Configuration

Azure Servers

1. Verify Hostname and Base URL
Check if the hostname and base URL include the RHEL server's URL (i.e., ZEUSPLRHELSS001):

cat /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf | grep baseurl

2. Registration Status
If the base URL is present, the server is already registered. If it’s not, continue with the following steps.

3. Log In to 10.113.2.100

4. Navigate to Activation Keys
From the side menu, go to: Content -> Lifecycle -> Activation Keys

5. Check Server Version
Determine the RHEL version of the server (e.g., RHEL 7.xx or 8.xx):

uname -a

6. Select Corresponding Version
In the portal, select the activation key that corresponds to the server version and copy it.

7. Apply Activation Key
On the server, paste and run the copied activation key.

8. Recheck Hostname and Base URL
Verify the hostname and base URL again:

cat /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf | grep baseurl

9. Document Output
Copy the output from the following command:

cat /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf | grep rhel

- Paste it on the SCTASK with proper comment.
