Chapter 2. RHEV for IBM Power


In Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.6, you can install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 hosts on IBM POWER8 little endian hardware, and install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 virtual machines on emulated IBM POWER8 hardware.

Important

Previous releases of RHEV for IBM Power required Red Hat Enterprise Linux hosts on POWER8 hardware to be installed from an ISO image. These hosts cannot be updated to be used with Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.6. You must reinstall Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 hosts using the repositories outlined below.
The packages provided in the following repositories are required to install and configure aspects of a Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization environment on POWER8 hardware.
