4. If you would like to register additional guests to your host, repeat the steps above. It is important
to remember that you can only provision one guest at a time. If you attempt to schedule a guest
kickstart while another is currently taking place, the current guest kickstart process will be canceled
and the new guest kickstart process will begin.
5. View your newly-created virtual guest's system in the Satellite's web interface by clicking on the
Virtualization
tab in the host system's profile. Then, click on the profile name of your virtual system.
You will be brought to its Satellite system profile.
8.3. Working With Your Virtual Systems
Once you have set up your virtual system, you can then manage and customize them via various
methods, including connecting via SSH and via the virtualization management interface on the host
system.
8.3.1. Logging into Virtual Systems Directly via SSH
1. You will need to locate the virtual system's IP address. Locate it by navigating to the
Systems
�
Virtual Systems
tab and clicking on the virtual system's profile name.
2. On the virtual system's profile page, you'll find the IP address in the left-hand informational column
in the
IP Address
field.
3. Connect to the IP address by using
ssh
as root, using the password you set for the virtual system
in the kickstart profile you created for it earlier.
8.3.2. Gaining Console Access Via the Host
1. First you will need to connect to the host system and determine the ID number of the guest you
would like to work with. Connect to the host system via
ssh
and run the following command:
xm list
This should provide you with a list all of the guests you created on your Satellite, including their ID
number. look for the guest,
guest1
, that we created earlier in this list. If, for example, this guest has
been assigned an ID of 2, then:
2. Run the following command to access the console of this virtual system:
xm console 2
You should immediately be able to view a login prompt on
guest1
.
3. Login to
guest1
as root using the same password you set in the kickstart profile you used to
provision the system.
(There may be some messages on the screen. In this case, hit the
Enter
key on your keyboard to
receive a fresh login prompt.)
4. To exit the guest console and return to the host system's command prompt, you may hit the
Ctrl
and
]
keys on your keyboard simultaneously.
