The red hat subscription manager module is missing parameters that are present in rhsm.conf. Specifically, I need the ability to disable certificate validation. The team I'm working with is using a self-signed certificate on their satellite server and that is preventing me from using cloud-init's rhsm module. Ideally, we'd be able to manage all of the parameters in rhsm.conf, so please explore that in the future. But I do need this one.
Thanks.

Research direction
Start by locating cloud-init's Red Hat Subscription Manager (rhsm) module and comparing its supported parameters with the linked rhsm.conf. The change is complete when certificate validation can be disabled for self-signed Satellite certificates, with coverage for the new parameter if the module has corresponding tests.
