Chapter 1. Deploying Red Hat Insights on systems registered with Red Hat Update Infrastructure
This guide is for users who want to deploy Red Hat Insights on an existing, cloud marketplace-purchased Red Hat Enterprise Linux system managed by Red Hat Update Infrastructure (RHUI).
To start using Insights, you must perform the following actions on each system you want to monitor and assess:
- Install the Insights client if it did not come preinstalled.
- Configure the client to use a form of authentication (activation keys or Red Hat Subscription Manager).
- Register the system to Insights for Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
For more information about authentication, refer to Client Configuration Guide for Red Hat Insights.
1.1. Installing the Insights client
The Insights client installation procedure is not required on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 (RHEL8) systems.
Install the client package on each system.
Procedure
Enter the following command to install the current version of the Insights client package:
[root@server ~]# yum install insights-client
1.1.1. Configuring authentication
You can use the following methods of authentication with the Insights client:
- Activation keys (recommended)

For more information about how to set up authentication, refer to Client Configuration Guide for Red Hat Insights.
1.2. Registering the system to Red Hat Insights
Register the system to communicate with the Red Hat Insights and to view results displayed in the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console.
Prerequisites
