Summary

In this chapter, you learned:

  • Red Hat Insights is designed to help you identify and remediate threats to the security, performance, availability, and stability of systems running Red Hat products.

  • Red Hat Insights is provided as Software-as-a-service (SaaS) through the Red Hat Customer Portal.

  • You can directly register clients for Red Hat Insights analysis through the Customer Portal, or indirectly by using your Red Hat Satellite Server as a proxy.

  • You can configure the Insights client on each of your hosts to restrict or obscure the data sent to Red Hat Insights for analysis, although this may make its analysis less comprehensive.

  • You can review Red Hat Insights reports on the Customer Portal or through your Red Hat Satellite Server.

  • The risk and impact of issues are graded by Likelihood, Impact, Total Risk, and Risk of change to help you understand and prioritize the actions to take to address detected issues.

  • You can create Ansible Playbooks to address issues with your systems by configuring a maintenance plan in Red Hat Insights.

  • Integrating Red Hat Ansible Tower with Red Hat Insights allows you to automate the remediation of issues reported by Red Hat Insights on your registered systems.
