Installing a VRM Linux agent
VRM uses a Linux agent to manage KVM virtual networks for Red Hat, Ubuntu, and Fedora and Citrx
XenServer virtual environment. With the agent, VRM can obtain virtual network data of KVM and Xen,
and set the virtual network parameters for KVM and Xen. Each VRM Linux agent can manage up to 200
physical KVM and Xen servers. You can install multiple VRM Linux agents as needed.
VRM Linux agents can run on 32-bit or 64-bit Red Hat 6.0 or later versions.
