:_mod-docs-content-type: PROCEDURE [id="installing-the-systemd-container-package-on-compute-hosts_{context}"] = Installing the `systemd-container` package on Compute hosts [role="_abstract"] Before you adopt the {rhos_long} data plane, you must install the `systemd-container` package on all the hypervisors on your Compute hosts. This procedure must be performed on one Compute host at a time. .Procedure . If your Compute host is running a virtual machine, live migrate the virtual machine from the host. For more information about live migration, see link:https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_openstack_platform/17.1/html/performing_a_minor_update_of_red_hat_openstack_platform/assembly_rebooting-the-overcloud_keeping-updated#proc_rebooting-compute-nodes_rebooting-the-overcloud[Rebooting Compute nodes] in _Performing a minor update of Red Hat OpenStack Platform_. . Install the `systemd-container` on the host: ** If you upgraded your environment from an earlier version of {rhos_prev_long}, reboot the Compute host to automatically install the `systemd-container`. ** If you deployed a new RHOSO environment, install the `systemd-container` manually by using the following command. Rebooting the Compute host is not required: + ---- $ sudo dnf -y install systemd-container ---- [NOTE] If your Compute host is not running a virtual machine, you can install the `systemd-container` automatically or manually. . Repeat this procedure on each hypervisor one by one.
