Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager RHEL 7 – Part 3

Before this i have posted a post about RHEV-M (Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager) Here is an Continuation post for Installing Red Hat Enterprise Hypervisor Host. Manager is used to manage multiple RHEVH (Red Hat Hyperisor Hosts). In this article we are going to see HowTo Install RHEV Hypervisor Installation Step by Step Guide.


Hypervisor we can also install in RHEL versions but installing direct ISO will give to optimized environment and less performance issues. Hypervisor Operating System is fully optimized and runs only required services.
RHEV Hypervisor Installation
After successful completion of download ISO file. Please write to CD/DVD and try to load and boot from CD/DVD
Start RHEV Hypervisor 7

Adding RHEV Hypervisor to RHEV Manager

Ping to the RHEV-M Host and check your able to reach
ping from rhevh to rhevm
If it is reachable then your almost near by
enable remote ssh access from security
Go to Security Tab and Enable SSH Remote Access which is used to authenticate from RHEVM for adding and changing Host settings from Manager
After enabling the SSH provide password and Hit Save
If you have requirement to monitor RHEV-H from monitoring tool enable SNMP
Enable SNMP
The Final step is to add Host to Manager to do that add RHEV-M details by selecting RHEV-M Tab
RHEV-M Configuration
RHEV-M FQDN – Provide Fully Qualified Domain Name OR IP Address of Manager
Provide Password for root
Click <Save / Register>
Go Back to Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager and check Host Tab you should see Added Host Pending for approval
Host is Pending for approval
Host is Pending for approval
Select Appropriate Host and Click Approve to continue
After adding Host to Manager
After adding Host to Manager
That’s it. RHEV Hypervisor installation completed successfully and also added to RHEV-M Now Next step is to Create Virtual Machines, Adding Storage Domains and Manage Virtual machines from Manager

Troubleshooting Tomcat using Catalina log

Troubleshooting Tomcat using Catalina log We can get the  catalina  logs in  $CATALINA_HOME/logs Here we'll have a  catalina.out We can see some huge info in that log file. If we want to what exactly happens since the start of tomcat then we need to log that into a new file. By default we have log rotation enabled on this logs. For now let us stop tomcat and nullify the catalina.out file and then start tomcat to have some new info in the catalina.out # service tomcat stop # cd $CATALINA_HOME/logs # :> catalina.out (or) cat /dev/null > catalina.out # ll catalina.out -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Feb 18 16:19 catalina.out # service tomcat start # ll catalina.out -rw-r----- 1 root root 17341 Feb 18 16:21 catalina.out We can see the log being written after the start of tomcat. Now we can notice the instance giving some information about the starting of tomcat, about the configuration for the startup, path of the servlet instance for which the log is re...

Ansible Installation Steps Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7

Ansible is a simple IT automation engine that automates provisioning, configuration management, application deployment and many other IT needs.  Designed for multi-tier deployments, ansible models your IT infrastructure by describing how all of your systems interrelate, rather than just managing one system at a time. In this Article we are going to learn Ansible Installation Steps Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 – RHEL 7. It uses no agents and no additional custom security infrastructure, so it’s easy to deploy – and most importantly, it uses a very simple language YAML that allow you to describe your automation jobs in a way that approaches plain English. Ansible Architecture Ansible works by connecting to your nodes and pushing out small programs, called “Ansible modules” to them. These programs are written to be resource models of the desired state of the system. Ansible then executes these modules using SSH Protocol, and removes them when finished. Your library of modul...

RHVH 4.1 Installation Steps for Red Hat Virtualization Host

Red Hat Virtualization Host (RHVH 4.1) is installed using a special build ( Download Link )of Red Hat Enterprise Linux with only the packages required to host virtual machines. It uses an Anaconda installation interface based on the one used by Red Hat Enterprise Linux hosts, and can be updated through the Red Hat Virtualization Manager or via yum. Using the yum command is the only way to install additional packages and have them persist after an upgrade. In this article we are going to see RHVH 4.1 installation RHVH features a Web interface for monitoring the host’s resources and performing administrative tasks. Direct access to RHVH via SSH or console is not supported, so the Cockpit user interface provides a graphical user interface for tasks that are performed before the host is added to the Red Hat Virtualization Manager, such as configuring networking and deploying a self-hosted engine, and can also be used to run terminal commands via the  Tools > Terminal.
