  • The individual user lacks adequate Channel subscriptions on RHN
  • The selected Red Hat Channels are no longer provided

Resolution

  • Review with RHN Support to ensure all needed users have appropriate Channel subscriptions. An organization admin should be the specified account.
  • If the channels identified by Altiris log errors are not needed, disable them from the Select software channels for import section of the Import Patch Data for Red Hat page.
