Fresh install on new server

Something just isn't looking right here. I'm getting the standard error when trying to install because the optional channel isn't enabled, so I run the command and this is all I get:
Code: Select all
[root@iss-chi-nag04 nagiosxi]# yum-config-manager --enable rhel-6-server-optional-rpms
Loaded plugins: product-id, rhnplugin
Any ideas?

Is the server on RHEL classic? If so, try this one out:
Code: Select all
rhn-channel --add --channel rhel-<arch>-<operatingsystem>-optional-6

I'd try slansing's suggestion, pre 6.3 or 6.4 RHN did not have subscription manager, so you will have to use rhn-classic commands. Don't worry, we know you are used to Cent and not having to add anything special.

Hey now! I was using the latest RHEL at the old place.....I opened a ticket here, they'll have to do it since it requires a username and password that I am not privy too
You can close this.
