It refers to the software, not the installation.

    [...] Each component has its own applicable EULA. The EULAs are
    located in the source code provided with the product. Throughout
    this document the components are referred to, individually and
    collectively, as the "Linux Programs." Most of the Linux
    Programs are licensed pursuant to a Linux EULA that permits you
    to copy, modify, and redistribute the software, in both source
    code and binary code forms. [...]

The Licence Agreement covers both RHAS and Services (sections B and
C). The EULA does not cover installation, but IANAL.

    3. END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT

    All EULAs pertaining specifically to Red Hat Linux Advanced
    Server permit Customer to copy, modify and redistribute Red Hat
