You can use local services of {insights-iop} to assess system health on hosts running {RHEL} without connecting to the {RHCloud}. {insights-iop} provides advisor recommendations and vulnerability reports.
If you use {insights-iop}:
-
The {Insights} services run locally on your {ProjectServer}.
-
{Project} only communicates with the locally running services of {insights-iop}.
-
{Project} does not send any reports to the {RHCloud}.
-
{Project} does not forward any data through the Insights client to the {RHCloud}.
-
You cannot use any of the hosted services on the {RHCloud}.
Your environment must meet the following requirements:
* You have installed {insights-iop} on your {ProjectServer}.
For more information, see {InstallingServerDisconnectedDocURL}installing-and-configuring-{insights-iop-id}[Installing and configuring {insights-iop}] in {InstallingServerDisconnectedDocTitle}.
* Install and configure the Insights client on hosts during host registration or provisioning.
For more information, see [Registering_Hosts_by_Using_Global_Registration_managing-hosts].
* For hosts already registered to {Project}, install and configure the Insights client on your hosts by using an Ansible role.
For more information, see [deploying-insights-client-on-registered-hosts_{context}].
* You can change the schedule for running the Insights client by configuring insights-client.timer on a host.
