Installing and Removing RACADM on a Linux Management Station
To use the remote RACADM functions, install RACADM on a management
station running Linux.
NOTE: When you run Setup on the Dell Systems Management Tools and
Documentation DVD, the RACADM utility for all supported operating systems is
installed on your management station.
Installing RACADM
1 Log on as root to the system where you want to install the management
station components.
2 If necessary, mount the Dell Systems Management Tools and
Documentation
DVD using the following command or a similar command:
mount /media/cdrom
3
Navigate to the /linux/rac directory and execute the following command:
rpm -ivh *.rpm
For help with the RACADM command, type racadm help after issuing the
previous commands.
Uninstalling RACADM
To uninstall RACADM, open a command prompt and type:
rpm -e
<racadm_package_name>
where <racadm_package_name> is the rpm package that was used to
install the RAC software.
For example, if the rpm package name is srvadmin-racadm5, then type:
rpm -e srvadmin-racadm5
