Verifying RHSM download plug-in certificate access to Red Hat repositories

From the command line, you can use the --check-baserepos and the --check-allrepos commands to check that the entitlement certificates, which are in the 'certs' folder, have access to the supported Red Hat repositories.

Use the following commands to verify if the entitlement certificate found in <BES Server>\DownloadPlugins\RHSMProtocol\certs can access the Red Hat repositories.

The results, which are displayed in the command prompt and printed to the RHSMPlugin.log, identify the number of accessible repositories which the certificate is entitled to against the available Red Hat repositories that BigFix supports.

--check-baserepos
Checks if the entitlement certificates in the 'certs' folder has access to the base repositories.
--check-allrepos
Checks if the entitlement certificates in the 'certs' folder has access to the base repositories and the sub-repositories.
