Installing JetPatch Overview
Process
If you haven't already, download the JetPatch VHD and Virtual Appliance Console Credentials.
- The download file contains JetPatch pre-installed on a CentOS 7.7 server. The VHD is about 4.5 GB.
-
Select New Virtual Machine from the Hyper-V Manager.
-
Use the new Virtual Machine wizard to choose a location, name, and base memory size.
- General sizing information can be found here. it's very important to give to JetPatch Server the necessary resources.
-
On the Connect Virtual Hard Disk page of the wizard, select Use virtual hard disk provided by JetPatch.
-
Complete the wizard and start the virtual machine.
-
Itβs recommended to log into the VM with SSH and change the default root password, which is jetpatch123456. Log in as root, and you will be asked to re-enter and then change the password immediately.
Hostname Configuration
1. To configure the JetPatch server hostname you have 2 options:
-a. Using Network Manager Interface:
-
nmtui
- Then select "Set System Hostname" in the interface.
-b. Using manual command bellow:
- set HOSTNAME to the new hostname using the following command
-
hostnamectl set-hostname jetpatch.example.com
-
Make sure the hostname is accessible by local applications:
- Run:
hostname -f
If the correct hostname is returned, it is available to applications and you're done with this.
Dynamic IP Configuration
- By default, the VHD should be configured with a dynamic IP. To confirm, cat the network card. (Example: cat ifcfg-ens32)
If it is not set to DHCP, you can use "nmtui", otherwise, try the following:
- #vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts --- Path of the Network cards
- # vi ifcfg-eth0 or ifcfg-ens32 (depends system to system)
- Once the below details are added needed to restart the network service
- #systemctl restart network or service network restart (depends from system to system)
