install, set up, and run RHEV in your environment.
Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager
In order to deploy and set up RHEV-M on a physical or virtual machine, the following are
the minimum or recommended hardware prerequisites:
Minimum requirements:
• A dual-core CPU
• 4 GB of RAM

• Network Interface Card with bandwidth of 1 GBps

RHEV-M requires the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3 server or higher. Install only minimal
or basic server type during the installation in order to avoid package conflict while setting

A valid Red Hat Network subscription uses RHN classic to access the following channels.
It is highly recommended that you use the Red Hat subscription manager to subscribe to
these relevant channels. However, the following channel names will vary if you use the
subscription manager. In this topic, we use RHN classic to register and subscribe to the fol-
lowing channels later during our manager setup:
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v6 for 64-bit x86_64)
• RHEL Server Supplementary (v6 64-bit x86_64)
• Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager (v3.3 x86_64)
• Red Hat JBoss EAP (v6) for 6Server x86_64
