Yes, that was the point was that the RHN Satellite server is another license for the host and PER CLIENT, so each machine you manage with RHN Sat is an additional fee. This is expensive

ZLM, however can be run on any SLES or even RHEL box with a minimal charge, say about $600 for the host and $40 or so per client.

The last time I looked at RHN Satellite it was in the over $10K per host range.

There are other options for managing the updates, however both RHN Satellite and ZLM will work with your current subscriptions. You have what used to be opsware (costs are high too but has a lot of great features) and some other products like it.
