Installing and setting up CLI
To install the command-line shell on the RHEL client, perform the following steps:
1. First, you need to register your manager machine to the Red Hat Network, and sub-
scribe it to the relevant RHEV channel using the following commands:
# rhn_register
# rhn-channel --add
-channel=rhel-x86_64-server-6-rhevm-3.3
Note
It's strongly recommended that you use the Red Hat Subscription manager to re-
gister and subscribe to the relevant channel. To use the Red Hat Subscription man-
ager, please refer to the Manager Installation section under RHEV 3.3 Installation
Guide at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/
Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.3/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html .
2. Install the CLI-related packages by running the following command:
# yum install rhevm-cli -y
3. Once you have installed the CLI packages on the client machine, the next step is to
obtain a certificate from the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager machine.
Once this is done, store it in the certificate store of your client machine since the
CLI installed on the client machine connects via Hypertext Transfer Protocol Se-
cure ( HTTPS ) to access the Application Programming Interface ( API ) of
RHEV-M.
Note
If you are using a different client, please refer to the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization
Manager Release Notes available at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/
Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.3/html/Manager_Release_Notes/index.html for spe-
cific channel names relevant to your system.
To obtain a certificate, perform the following steps:
