Setting Up the RHEV Virtual Infrastructure - Getting Started with Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization - page 63

Summary
In this chapter, we discussed setting up various logical components such as data centers,
and clusters, registering a hypervisor host to a cluster, cluster policies for high availability,
setting up logical networks for end user traffic to access the application hosted on virtual
machines, various configured and activated storage domain types to store virtual machine
images, and backing up those images to restore or move them to other RHEV data centers.
In the next chapter, we will see how to create your first virtual machine on the RHEV infra-
structure and templates from the virtual machines as golden images that can be reused.
Later, we will see how to clone a virtual machine from the templates and take live virtual
machine snapshots, which will be useful in a scenario prior to applying patches to your crit-
ical production workloads. Finally, we will see how to back up complete virtual machine
images into an export domain to be reused later, or move them to other RHEV environ-
ments or across data centers.
