machine with Red Hat Network. This fucntion is called as
refresh(hardware) or refresh(rpmlist)
new_systemid This action is used by the RHn Backend to update the Digital
system ID of this machine with a new one.
update_packages This action will trigger rhn_check into running a package
update for a list of packages queued from the Red Hat Network.
rhn_check will use modules from the up2date client to download
the packages, solve dependencies and install the on the system.
