Foglight for Virtualization, Standard Edition: Installation and Configuration Guide 14
Chapter 1—Installing Foglight for Virtualization, Standard Edition
is required by Foglight for Virtualization, Standard Edition for the collection of performance
metrics.
Note The rhevm-etl service must be running for this collection to occur.
Selecting the RHEV Export Domain
The next step is to determine which export domain to use. The rhevm-image-uploader utility
needs the name of an RHEV export domain to upload the appliance to. You can use the RHEVM
admin interface to learn which export domains are currently available, or to configure a new one in
case no export domain is available yet.
After the utility is installed and configured, and you have identified the export domain, importing
the appliance is a three-step process.
To import the appliance:
1 Upload the appliance into the export domain with the rhevm-image-uploader utility. From
the RHEVM, run the command:
#rhevm-image-uploader -e <export domain> --name <name> upload <filename.ovf>
where <export domain> is the name of the export domain, and <name> is the VM that you
want to create from this appliance.
2 Create a VM from the appliance in the export domain.
a Open the RHEV admin interface and select the Storage tab.
b Locate and select the export domain from step 1, and click Import.
c Click OK on the confirmation dialog box. The import operation starts and runs in the
background.
3 Attach the VM to the rhevm network. At minimum, the appliance needs access to the rhevm
management network.
The
rhevm-image-uploader utility does not create any network interfaces. Therefore, you
must manually create a network interface and add it to the rhevm network.
a In the RHEV admin interface, click the Virtual Machines tab.
b Locate and select the virtual machine created in step 2.
c Click Network Interfaces, then click New.
