## RHEL8 Entitlements
To build the RAN images, we use the `codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms` repository with all the proper development libraries.
This repository is not directly accessible from the UBI RHEL8 image (`registry.access.redhat.com/ubi8/ubi:latest`).
Therefore, we need to copy certificates and subscription manager configuration files from a registered RHEL8 machine.
So we need to copy from a register RHEL8 machine certificates and subsccription manager configuration files.
SO on a `RHEL8` physical machine (or a virtual machine) connected to the OpenShift Cluster, recover the entitlement and the RH subscription manager configs:
