Chapter 3. Installing Red Hat Discovery containers with the connected installation process You use the connected installation process when you want to run Red Hat Discovery from a system that has internet access, also commonly referred to as a connected or online environment. During the Discovery connected installation process, you complete all steps from the system that you intend to use as the Red Hat Discovery server. You will enter commands to obtain, install, configure the environment for, and start the Discovery containers from the container images on the Red Hat Ecosystem Catalog website. The connected installation process uses Podman to perform the container installation tasks for the Discovery server. You will need sudo permissions to install Podman on your system. However, you must not run the Discovery application using sudo or as the root user. Prerequisites Before you begin, ensure that all hardware, software, and environment prerequisites are installed and configured. For more information about the prerequisites, see Installing prerequisites for Discovery . 3.1. Installing the Discovery database and server container images for the connected installation During the connected installation of the Discovery database and server container images, you obtain the Discovery containers from the container images on the Red Hat Ecosystem Catalog website, configure the containers and configure Discovery, and start the containers. Prerequisites The system on which you are downloading the Discovery container images must be connected to the internet. That system must be able to connect to the Red Hat Ecosystem Catalog. Procedure To get the Discovery installer package, use the following steps: Run the following commands to get the Discovery installer. Note In the preceding command, replace <repository> with the following values: For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, replace <repository> with discovery-1-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, replace <repository> with discovery-1-for-rhel-9-x86_64-rpms Run the following commands to log in to Podman and to run the Discovery installer. Note In the procedure, when you run the discovery-installer install command for the first time, you will be prompted to enter a server password. Start the Discovery application. Note The first time you start Discovery, the initial startup procedure for the application might take a long time to complete.

Changing the Discovery password You can change the Discovery server password, and it is possible that security standards at your organization might require that you change it.

Setting other post-installation preferences The following steps are optional, but can improve the efficiency and usability of your Discovery application. To remain logged in to Discovery, use the following command: If you want to access Discovery on another computer in the same network, you must allow traffic on TCP port 9443 through any firewall to or on the system that is running the Discovery server.
