6.3. Installing Cockpit on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Hosts
You can install a Cockpit user interface for monitoring the host’s resources and performing administrative tasks.
Installing Cockpit on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Hosts
- By default, when adding a host to the Red Hat Virtualization Manager, the Manager configures the required firewall ports. See ] for details. However, if you disable Automatically configure host firewall when adding the host, manually configure the firewall according to xref:host-firewall-requirements_RHV_install[.
Install the dashboard packages:
# yum install cockpit-ovirt-dashboard
Enable and start the cockpit.socket service:
# systemctl enable cockpit.socket # systemctl start cockpit.socket
- You can log in to the Cockpit user interface at https://HostFQDNorIP:9090.
