Redhat virtual datacenter ... virt-who on proxmox

[immo]

HI,
we do plan to run a lot of RHEL machines on proxmox. Therefore we have the Virtual Datacenter Licence available. Is there anybody out there who is running satelite and virt-who on proxmox and would be so kind to give some insights how to do?

Proxmox is great and all, but if your organization shelled out for the VDL, wouldnt they want to run in a supported environment?

 like Openshift Virtualization, Red Hat Virtualization, VMware, and Microsoft HyperV.

Certified hypervisors that have been tested and proven to run Red Hat Enterprise Linux as a guest are available from Red Hat and third parties.

Red Hat virtualization products/hypervisor hosts:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform
Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization
Red Hat Enterprise Linux with KVM
Third-party hypervisors or hosts:

Microsoft Hyper-V
VMware ESXi and ESX
Nutanix AHV

Our Proxmox cluster runs over 700 VMs most are ubuntu, rocky linux, centos, windows, and a few some more specialized ones. RHEL will run only on about 5-10 VMs in future where all other RHEL must be hosted on VMware .. So it would be great to be able to run RHEL linux based VMs on the VDL if necessary on some of the prox hosts only..

so virt-who will report KVM back so from the product perspective it will just behave as though it's on redhat virtualization which is also KVM based.

should be but without virtlib ... can I install virtlib on proxmox without side effects ?

Sorry for posting in such an old thread. I am just curious whether you were able to get the Proxmox + RHEL VDL combination to run?

No I do not get it work. but give up after some tries. So might be the environment changed in the meantime in a good way ... .Please test and tell me the result
