Procedure 3.3. Installing the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager Packages

1. Use yum to ensure that the most up to date versions of all installed packages are in use.

   # yum upgrade

2. Use yum to initiate installation of the rhevm package and all dependencies. You must run this command as the root user.

   # yum install rhevm

   Note

   Installing the rhevm package also installs all packages which it depends on. This includes the java-1.7.0-openjdk package. The java-1.7.0-openjdk package provides the OpenJDK Java Virtual Machine (JVM) required to run Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager.
3. The rhevm package includes the rhevm-doc package as a dependency. The rhevm-doc package provides a local copy of the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization documentation suite. This documentation is also used to provide context sensitive help links from the Administration and User Portals.
   As localized versions of this package become available they will be released to Red Hat Network. Follow these steps to find and install any available localized Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization documentation packages that you require:
   1. Use the yum command to search for translated Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager documentation packages:

      # yum search rhevm-doc

   2. While logged in as the root user use the yum command to install translated Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager documentation packages. Here the Japanese (ja-JP) version of the package is installed:

      # yum install rhevm-doc-ja-JP
