Kamelsh, I don't actually see a screenshot attached here. Could you try re-adding this if you still need assistance on this issue?
Kamlesh,
I recognize that screen shot because we used to run RHEV 2.2. (This would also explain your reference to RHEV-M being installed on Windows.)
You cannot add RHEL 6.5 based hypervisors to a RHEV 2.2 manager. If you must keep RHEV 2.2 running, add RHEL 5.x based hypervisors. The latest 5.x release for RHEV-H was based from RHEL 5.9. The download links are no longer available. Your best bet would be to use a full RHEL 5.9 host. The documentation on how to setup RHEL 5.x for use as a RHEV hypervisor is still available: https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization_for_Servers/2.2/html/Installation_Guide/chap-Installation_Guide-Using_Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_Hosts.html.
But you really shouldn't be running RHEV 2.2 as it's very old and not supported. Use an NFS export domain to export any critical VMs you have. You can later import those VMs from a new RHEV 3.x environment with access to the same storage.

Nice catch.
You may also refer to the RHEV product lifecycle.
The current supported version is RHEV 3.3, and RHEV 3.4 is targeted for release this quarter.
