Chapter 5. Executing remediation plans

After you create a remediation plan, you can download and run the generated playbook by using your organization’s Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) workflow, or you can execute the playbook on remote systems from the Insights for Red Hat Enterprise Linux application.

5.1. Executing remediation plans from the Insights UI
Link kopieren

You can execute the playbooks generated by your remediation plans from the Insights UI on the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console, if you have the required permissions and pass the readiness check.

Execution readiness check

When you open a remediation plan in the Insights UI, a readiness check is automatically activated. The readiness check ensures that you have completed the prerequisites necessary to execute the playbook on the systems that are included in the plan.

The results of the readiness check display in the Execution readiness section of the remediation plan details, along with some hints to help you understand which prerequisites were not met.

If the readiness check fails, the Execute button is disabled. This does not necessarily mean that there is an issue with your plan. It could mean that there is an issue connecting to the remote host or that you do not have the required permissions to connect and trigger the execution readiness checks.

Required permissions for remediation plan execution

You need the Remediations administrator role to execute a remediation plan on remote hosts from Insights.

The Remediations administrator role is a predefined role created and granted by your Organization Administrator in the Identity and Access Management (IAM) settings on the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console.

Important
  • The Remediations user role does not have the required permissions to execute remediation plans on remote systems. The Remediations administrator role permits access to all remediations capabilities and also allows you to discover whether your systems are connected.
  • If you do not have the required permissions, the connection status for your system will be set to Unknown, even though you can connect to that system for other use cases in the console.
  • The Remediations administrator role is not a default role. You must create the group and add yourself to the group. For more information about User Access permissions, see Managing group access with roles and members.

Prerequisites

To pass the remediations execution readiness check, ensure the following prerequisites are met:

  • You can log on to the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console.
  • Your user account is a member of a User Access group with the Remediations administrator role, as outlined earlier in this section.
  • You have completed the steps in Enabling host communication with Insights
  • The option Allow permitted Insights users to execute remediation playbooks on rhc-connected systems is enabled on the Remote Host Configuration Manager page in the Insights UI.

To execute a remediation plan on one or more directly connected RHEL systems, complete the following steps from the Insights UI.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to Automation Toolkit > Remediation Plans.
  2. Scroll through the list and find a remediation plan.
  3. Click the name to open the Remediation plan details view.

  4. Click Execute.

    Important

    If the Execute button is disabled, this means that the execution readiness check failed because one of the requirements was not met. To help you troubleshoot and complete the execution readiness check successfully, see Execution readiness check.

  5. When prompted, click Execute playbook on systems. The playbook runs on the systems included in the remediation plan.
Note

A remediation plan with a large number of actions to execute on many systems might take a while to complete.

Next steps

  • To monitor the progress, go to the Execution History tab for the plan you just executed. The Execution History tab displays the status, history and links to the logs of a plan execution for each included system.
  • When the remediation plan is successfully executed, find and open the recommendation or issue that your remediation plan addressed, and verify that the impacted systems you remediated are no longer in the list.

5.2. Executing remediations from the Satellite UI

You can also remediate using the Satellite UI.

Prerequisites

  • You are a Cloud Administrator.
  • You are a Remediations Administrator.
  • You have completed Host registration by using the Insights client.

For specific instructions, see Creating an Insights Remediation Plan for Hosts in the Satellite Managing Hosts documentation.

Note

When you introduce a new host into your Satellite inventory, by means of provisioning or registration, two automatic background tasks will initiate. It will take 24 hours for these tasks to complete. This is a typical time frame for the automatic synchronization.

If you identify security issues or another scenario that warrants not waiting 24 hours for the automatic sync, you can manually synchronize by clicking the sync button in the UI. This manual sync will complete in a few minutes.

To see the procedures for enabling automatic and manual synchronization, see the Configuring Synchronization of Insights Recommendations for Hosts in the Satellite documentation.
