4.7. Configuring Red Hat Satellite Errata Management for a Virtual Machine

Red Hat Virtualization 4.1 supports errata management with Red Hat Satellite 6.1.
The following prerequisites apply:

Important

Virtual machines are identified in the Satellite server by their FQDN. This ensures that an external content host ID does not need to be maintained in Red Hat Virtualization.
