Add a Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Connection to the Manager

You can add a Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization connection using the Administration tab of the CA Virtual Assurance user interface.

Follow these steps:

1. Open the CA Virtual Assurance user interface from the Start menu. Click Administration, Configuration.

   The Configuration page appears.

2. Select Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization from the Provisioning section in the left pane.
3. Click (Add) on the Registered Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Servers pane toolbar.

   The Add Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Server dialog appears.

4. Enter the required connection data (server name, user, password, ISO Library credentials, port), specify the preferred AIM, enable Managed Status (checkbox).

   Note: The ISO Library contains ISO images for provisioning. Without the ISO image, the provisioning does not work.

5. Click OK.

   If the network connection has been established successfully, the Server is added to the top right pane with a green status icon.

   If the connection fails, the Validation Failed dialog appears. If you click Yes, CA Virtual Assurance adds the Server to the list with a red status icon indicating a connection failure. If you click No, nothing is added.
