Chapter 6. Introduction to Hypervisor Hosts


Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization supports three types of hypervisor hosts: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor (RHEV-H), Red Hat Virtualization Host (RHVH), and Red Hat Enterprise Linux host (RHEL-based hypervisor). You can use any combination of hypervisor types in your Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization environment.

Important

In new Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.6 environments, Red Hat recommends installing RHVH 3.6 because it provides an upgrade path to the most recent version of Red Hat Virtualization through the Manager. Installations that use RHEV-H require a full reinstall of the hypervisors to upgrade to the most recent version of Red Hat Virtualization. See Section 8.1, “Installing Red Hat Virtualization Host” for more information.
For more information about upgrading with RHEV-H, see Upgrading to Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.6 in the Upgrade Guide. RHEV-H installations should be converted to RHVH 3.6 as part of the upgrade.
