Do that I had to do: yum install rhn-kickstart-virtualization I did that but I get the following error message: rhnreg_ks --serverUrl=http://LONGRHN01A.gta.travel.lcl/XMLRPC --activationkey=1-basic --username=admin --force libvir: Xen Daemon error : internal error failed to connect to xend libvir: Xen Daemon error : internal error failed to connect to xend An error has occurred: exceptions.AttributeError See /var/log/up2date for more information Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/rhnreg_ks", line 267, in ? cli.run() File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rhncli.py", line 65, in run sys.exit(self.main() or 0) File "/usr/sbin/rhnreg_ks", line 176, in main rhnreg.sendVirtInfo(systemId) File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rhnreg.py", line 648, in sendVirtInfo support.refresh() File "/usr/share/rhn/virtualization/support.py", line 71, in refresh domain_list = domains.values() exceptions.AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'values' I am assuming that the appropriate libraries that this python code is expecting is not in place. I someone able to make some suggestions as to what libraries are required for the python code to pick up all the necessary info.
