Installing RHEV-H Hypervisor 4.1
Hi,
According to the official Documentation: we have to Download the RHVH ISO image, which is not listed in the download page for RHEV-H .( as shown the attached photo).
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.1/html/installation_guide/red_hat_virtualization_hosts
There are two Products in the download page for RHEV-H:
https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/150/ver=4.1/rhel---7/4.1/x86_64/product-software
-
RHV 4.1 Guest Tools ISO
-
RHV-M Appliance for 4.1 (the OVA RHV-M Appliance for 4.1 file is not working as well ( OVA has invalid header block (checksum error)) when i try to install it on VMware.)
Please Guide me how to install RHEV-H 4.1. (how to use these two products)?
Thanks
Regards

Hi Colin, it's not possible for the manager to push out the new rpm's unfortunately. The intention is for hypervisors to download their updates either from RHSM or Satellite. The package that provides the updates is redhat-virtualization-host-image-update, which is in the rhel-7-server-rhvh-4-rpms channel (however, this can only be registered to systems with the RHV-H certificate /etc/pki/product-default/328.pem). While it's possible to create your own custom repos and register the hypervisors to it, it would be far easier just to register to RHSM (or Satellite).
Ah, OK, so the old 'install the latest rhev-hypervisor7 RPM' no longer applies? Does this remove the need for having a VM running 'virt-who'?
OK, have just tried registering one of our new DEV 4.1 hypervisors, but Satellite 6.2 is refusing to give it a valid subscription. I'll poke around in https://access.redhat.com/ and see if I can see whats wrong.
Hello Colin, virt-who is still required AFAIK, further tips on setting that up can be found here
