Important
For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, the ovirt-hosted-engine-setup package is provided by the rhel-6-server-rhevm-3.5-rpms repository. If you only have one Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization entitlement, you will need to attach the entitlement to the host first. After you have downloaded the ovirt-hosted-engine-setup package, remove the subscription so you can reattach it to the virtual machine to be used as the Manager. See https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Subscription_Management/1/html/RHSM/sub-cli.html for more information on how to remove a single product subscription.# subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-6-server-rpms # subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-6-server-optional-rpms # subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-6-server-supplementary-rpms # subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-6-server-rhev-mgmt-agent-rpms # subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-6-server-rhevm-3.5-rpms
