This example uses the kernel command line parameters for an automated Hypervisor installation.

Important — Customize Before Use

This example may not work accurately on all systems. The parameter descriptions above should be reviewed and the example modified as appropriate for the systems on which deployment is to occur.
The following is a typical example for installing a Hypervisor with the kernel command line parameters
In this example, the Manager is located at the hostname: rhevm.example.com, and the netconsole server is located on the same machine.
:linux storage_init=/dev/sda storage_vol=::::: local_boot BOOTIF=eth0 management_server=rhevm.example.com netconsole=rhevm.example.com

Note — For PXE Installations

The kernel parameters can be automatically appended to guests booting over a network with PXE. Automatically installing from PXE is not covered by this guide.
