Installation manual

Where can I find the source packages for Open Source RPMs?
Source packages for Open Source RPMs are available on an orderable DVD image.
What do I do when management station RAC utility installation fails due to missing RPM
file?
During the installation of the management station RAC utility (mgmtst-racadm RPM under /SYSMGMT/
ManagementStation/linux/rac directory on the Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation DVD), the
installation may fail due to missing RPM file dependencies on libstdc++.so libraries. Install the compat-libstdc++ RPM
provided in the same directory to resolve the dependency and retry the installation.
When using the rpm -e 'rpm -qa | grep srvadmin' command to remove Dell OpenManage
systems management software, some RPM utility versions may schedule an uninstallation
in an incorrect order, which results in users encountering misleading warning or error
messages. What is the solution?
The solution is to use the Dell OpenManage uninstall script srvadmin-uninstall.sh, provided on the DVD.
What do I do when I am asked to authenticate using the root user account?
Dell Systems Build and Update Utility adds a script to the root user's .bash_profile file that prompts for the installation of
Dell OpenManage systems management software. This script may interfere with remote client applications that
authenticate using the root user account on the system, but do not have a means to handle user prompts. To remedy this
limitation, edit the .bash_profile file and comment the line [ ${SHLVL}....
During uninstallation, error: %preun(srvadmin-NAME-X.Y.Z-N.i386) scriptlet failed, exit
status 1 error message is displayed.
There may be problems uninstalling Server Administrator after an unsuccessful upgrade during a manual RPM upgrade.
The following error message is displayed:
error: %preun(srvadmin-NAME-X.Y.Z-N.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 1
In this case, NAME is a feature name, for example omacore. X.Y.Z-N is the version and build number of the
feature. Some possible solutions to rectify this problem:
1. Attempt to uninstall again. For example, use the following command:
rpm -e srvadmin-NAME-X.Y.Z-N.i386
2. Delete the upgrade.relocation=bad line if present in the /etc/omreg.cfg file and attempt to uninstall again.
Why am I getting a warning concerning the RPM package key during installation?
The RPM files are signed with a digital signature. To avoid this warning, you should mount the media or package, and
import the key using a command such as the following:
rpm --import /mnt/dvdrom/SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/RPM-GPG-KEY
