Red Hat Access Insights Client

Installing

On a RHEL7 box:

Make sure the build dependencies are installed:

    ./tests/install-build-requirements

If the script fails, try to install the build requirements by hand. If it fails because of subscription-manager, try 'subscription-manager register --auto-attach', or just try yum without subscription-manager.

Next build it.

make clean install

Next configure it.

1. Edit /etc/insights-client/insights-client.conf

Some things you might want to change:

1. User id, where YOUR_RHN_xxx is your RHN/Red Hat Portal username and password

   username=YOUR_RHN_USERNAME

   password=YOUR_RHN_PASSWORD

2. What server to use, where DEVEL_SERVER_AND_PORT is whatever development insights server you have set up. If left default, the client will contact Red Hat's production server

   upload_url=http://DEVEL_SERVER_AND_PORT/r/insights/uploads

   collection_rules_url=http://DEVEL_SERVER_AND_PORT/v1/static/uploader.json

   gpg=False

3. Random logging stuff,

   loglevel=DEBUG

   auto_config=False

   no_schedule=True

Next run some tests:

insights-client --verbose --register

./tests/test-containers
./tests/test-containers "python ./insights_client/__init__.py"

./tests/test-new-specs
./tests/test-conditional-docker
