Host

The Host page shows information about the host system, and allows you to shut down, restart, and connect to the host.

You can perform the following actions on the host:

Click the following sections to display information about the host:

Basic information
This section displays the host operating system distribution, version, and code name, as well as the processor type, the number of online CPUs and amount of memory in GB.
System statistics
This section displays graphs to show statistics for CPU, memory, disk I/O, and network I/O for the host.
Software Updates
This section displays information for all of the packages that have updates available, including package name, version, architecture, and repository. You can update all of the packages listed by selecting Update All. You cannot select individual packages for updates.
Repositories
This section displays repositories that are associated with the host system. You can add, enable, edit, or remove repositories. Adding a repository associates it with the host system while enabling a repository allows the host to access it. If your system is Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Fedora, you can add yum repositories. If your system is Ubuntu or Debian, then add deb repositories.

If you are working with yum repositories, you can add a GPG check to verify that a package from this repository have not been corrupted. Select a repository and then Edit. Select Yes to enable GPG Check and then enter a URL to the GPG key file for the repository.

Debug reports
This section displays debug reports, including name and file path. You can select from options to generate a new report, or rename, remove, or download an existing report.

The debug report is generated using the sosreport command. It is available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora, and Ubuntu distributions. The command generates a .tar file that contains configuration and diagnostic information, such as the running kernel version, loaded modules, and system and service configuration files. The command also runs external programs to collect further information and stores this output in the resulting archive.
