At this point you should already have a Default data center and a Default cluster, which have been automatically created during the Manager installation. In addition, the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor you installed in Section 9.4, “Install Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor” should have been automatically detected by the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager, and attached to the Default cluster of the Default data center. However, before it can be used, it requires a click of approval from the administration portal.
To approve the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor host
- Navigate to the Tree pane and click the Expand All button. Click System. The Hosts tab displays a list of available hypervisors.
- Select your hypervisor and click the Approve button. The Edit and Approve Host dialog displays. Accept the defaults or make changes as necessary, then click .
- A dialog appears, indicating that you have not configured Power Management for this host. For the purpose of this lab, click OK to continue. The host goes through a brief installation cycle. When complete, the host status changes from Non Operational to Up.
Now that you have finished configuring your physical servers for use as the Manager, Hypervisor and administration portal client respectively, you are ready to customize and deploy virtual resources including storage domains and virtual machines.
