红帽全球峰会第 15 章 Starting a remote installation by using the Remote Desktop Protocol
You can start remote installation by using the Remote Desktop Protocol.
You can perform a remote RHEL installation by using an RDP client directly connecting to the target system that is being installed with RHEL. The system with the RDP viewer is referred to as the remote system. You are prompted by the RHEL installation program to initiate the connection from the RDP viewer on the remote system to the target system.
You can use an RDP client of your choice (such as GNOME Connections). Specific instructions for other viewers might differ, but the general principles apply.
Prerequisites
- You have installed an RDP viewer on a remote system.
Procedure
-
From the RHEL boot menu on the target system, press the
ekey on your keyboard to edit the boot options. Append the
inst.rdpoption to the end of the command line.You can also use the
inst.rdp.usernameandinst.rdp.passwordboot options to set the RDP credentials. For example,inst.rdp inst.rdp.username=my_username inst.rdp.password=my_password-
Press
CTRL+XorF10to start the installation. The target system initializes the installation program and starts the necessary services. When the system is ready, a message is displayed providing the IP address of the system. - Provide username and password details, if not provided earlier by using the boot options.
- Open the RDP viewer on the remote system.
- Enter the IP address into the RDP server field.
- Click Connect.
Enter the RDP username and password and click OK.
A new window opens with the RDP connection established, displaying the RHEL installation menu. From this window, you can install RHEL on the target system by using the graphical user interface.
