The only official and supported ways to retrieve our patches and updates are
directly thought SCC, via SMT/RMT or a SUSE Manager. So you need to register
your server to SCC, SMT or SUSE Manager.

if not register to SCC/SMT/SUMA, well not have SUSE Channels available.

If we do registere them I can see the SCC filling up 'cos the good people are used to just deleting the clone when it's done it's task.

Well I guess, you have all sort of processes to create and destroy clones and I
think registration and de-registration should fit perfectly into your processes.
