inventory data to management station applications like ITA. If required, srvadmin-
cm package can be installed from appropriate subfolders under
SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/RPMS/supportRPMS/srvadmin from the Dell Systems
Management Tools and Documentation DVD. Since srvadmin-cm RPM requires 32-
bit version of zlib and compat-libstdc++ libraries, ensure that these libraries are
installed on the system.
NOTE: If you are upgrading the operating system to a major version (example, SLES
10 to SLES 11), uninstall the existing version of Dell OpenManage and install the
supported version.
NOTE: Before you migrate to a 64-bit version of Dell OpenManage software,
uninstall the 32-bit Dell OpenManage that is installed and other OpenSource
components (openwsman-server, openwsman-client, libwsman1, sblim-sfcb, sblim-
sfcc, libcmpiCppImpl0, libsmbios2, smbios-utils-bin) installed as part of 32-bit Dell
OpenManage
The installation scripts and RPM packages specific to your operating system
are provided to install and uninstall Dell OpenManage Server Administrator
and other managed system software components. These installation scripts
and RPMs are located in the SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/ directory in the
Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation DVD.
The install script srvadmin-install.sh allows silent or interactive installation.
By including the srvadmin-install.sh script in your Linux scripts, you can
install Server Administrator on single or multiple systems and locally or across
a network.
The second install method uses the Server Administrator RPM packages
provided in the custom directories and the Linux rpm command. You can
write Linux scripts that install Server Administrator on a single or multiple
systems locally or across a network.
Using a combination of the two install methods is not recommended and may
require that you manually install required Server Administrator RPM
packages provided in the custom directories, using the Linux rpm command.
