Quick demo of Cockpit web-based management
Cockpit is a user-friendly web-based interface for administering servers. It allows monitoring system resources and adjusting configuration with ease.
- RHEL 7 or greater, no RHEL 6 or below
- Cockpit does not need special infrastructure or configuration. Once installed, it is ready to use
- When not in use, Cockpit uses no memory or CPU on the server
- Cockpit stores no data or policy. People keep their system-wide permissions and use the system credentials
# yum install -y cockpit (also installs -bridge, -system, -ws)
# systemctl enable cockpit.socket
# firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service cockpit
# firewall-cmd --reload
# systemctl start cockpit
