Register Suse Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) via command line

Auto Date Friday, December 12th, 2008

To speed up your new Suse Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) install process and register your new box with Novell Center I suggest using a quick command line:

suse_register -a email=”your@emailaddresshere.com” -a regcode-sles=”REGCODE”

REGCODE is your Suse registration code (e.g. Order code), usually consists of 14 characters.

You must be root to execute this command and make sure you network configuration is set-up and your server on-line. After registration you can start server updating process via Yast or rug command line. Good luck!
