Exam CloudForms

1. Deploy a Cloudforms applicance on rhevm.podX.example.com.

* You can download he appliance image from
http://classroom.example.com/materials/cfme-rhevm-5.ova
* Use redhat for RHEVM admin user password
* Upload the appliance image into the exprot domain(exportX)
* Use the appliance image create a VM template, set the template name as
CFME_3.1

Additional configuration information

You have been provided with two physical systems for this exam. One system
is the system which is running the desktop on which you are viewing this
c... not have root access to this system. This system is hosting a virtual
system pre-configured with Red Hat Enterprose Virtualization Manager(RHEVM)
Note that since you do not have root access to the desktop system you will
not be able to preform exam work directly on that system.However you may
u... test services that you may need to configure as part of your work
during the exam.
Your other physical system has been installed with Red Hat Enterprise
Virtualization Hypervisor (RHEVM). This system has already been associated
with y... information about your RHEVM configuration will be found below.
The password for the root account for your exam systems is ablerate. Unless
otherwise specified.this will be the password for any accounts or services
or services ... connect and it should alse be the password you use for any
accounts that you may create.
The IP addresses for your systems are provided by DHCP however should you
deem it appropriate or necessary to reconfigure your systems to use static
IP following settings:
RHEVM:rhevm.podX.example.com.172.25.X.10
RHEVH:host1.podX.example.com.172.25.X.30
The network mask for all systems is 255.255.255.0
Your systems are in the DNS domain domain2.example.com. All systems in the
domain2.example.com DNS domain are in the 172.25.X.0/255.255.255.0 systems
in that subnet are in domain2.example.com. Unless otherwise specified.any
network services you are asked to implement should be accessible to
domain2.example.com
The default firewall configuration has been enabled however some requiemens
for the exam may require you to alter the default configuration.
The YUM repository fo the version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux you are using
for the exam can be accessed at: http:regls.domain2.example.com//rhel
Limited documentation may be found at http://rhgls.domain2.example.com/docs
Note that some items may depend on oter exam items.For example. You may be
asked to implement a specific set of restrictions for a user in one item
but the ... that user may be specified in a different item.

EX220 Requirements
Perform all of the following steps.When you receive your results.these
items will be reported as a single score identif these requirements in
order to earn certification.

1.Deploy CloudForms
Download the CloudForms applicance template at
http://classroom.example.com/materials/cfme-rhevm-5.ova to ther following
requirements.
The CloudForms applicance template should be named

The virtual applicance is named cfme
The virtual applicance has an additional 4 GiB disk
The applicance uses spice for console access
The applicance memory size is 4096 MiB
 The applicance has 2 virtual CPUs
The applicance virtual system has a MAC address of 52:54:00:00:XX:0C

Once the cloudForms server is running.It must be possible to ping the

applicance useing the address cfme.pod0.example.com
Note:you will nedd to sure the default administrator password to access
the applicance.If you do not known what this is or do not recall it
Guid.After the CloudForms applicance has started,configure it as follows:
Set the timezones to your local regions.
The internal database uses the disk that you added earlier
The database region is X
Leave the administrator password set to the default value

possible to provision virtual systems using this template. Note that you
must also perform any steps necessary on your RHEVM environment the name of
the virtual system template.
Once you have configured the template,use it to provision a virtual system
on your CloudForms server as follows:
Name:small-1
