Not sure of the question. I didn't install the 6.4 base system; however,
that shouldn't matter.  I believe the install was done via some
provisioning tool like cobbler. Installation of other necessary packages
to make things work has been mostly a hunt and gather exercise, then use
rpm -ivh in order to install since by default the yum.repos.d are devoid
of any way to yum update.

Right, when/if I find more time in order to try various different
options.  I'd probably start from scratch and be more careful about
documenting everything I had to do.

The two primary pages I've looked at are:

http://libvirt.org/CIM/schema.html

http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Libvirt-cim_setup

Beyond that the 'README' from the 'libvirt-cim' git repository provided
some tips.

Generally speaking though anything from the /CIM/ pages is probably a
bit old.  Figuring all the steps and packages one should take would be a
nice exercise; however, it doesn't seem there are that many new users
out there so it's not a "top of the list" type item to undertake.
