Running the initial engine setup
Once you're prepared with all the answers to the questions we discussed in the previous
section, it's time to run the initial configuration script called
engine-setup
to perform
the initial configuration and setting up of RHEV-M. The installer will ask you several ques-
tions, which have been discussed above and based on your input, it will configure your
RHEV-M. Leave the default settings as they are and press
Enter
if you feel the installer's
default answers are appropriate to your setup. Once the installer takes in all your input, it
will ask you for the final confirmation of your supplied configuration setting; type in
OK
and press
Enter
to continue the setup. For better understanding, please refer to the follow-
ing output of the
engine-setup
installer while setting up a lab for this chapter.
