NOTE: To manage the server, select either Server Administrator Web Server or one of the Management Interfaces – CLI, SNMP

or OS LOG along with Server Instrumentation (SI) or Server Administrator Storage Management Service (OMSS).

NOTE: Command-line options for [-t] and [-g] cannot be used without a management interface. These options must be

combined with management interface options such as [-w], [-i], [-z], [-l], or [-m]. For more information on custom installations,

see Server Administrator Custom Installation Utility.

Installing Managed System Software

This section explains how to install managed system software using the following installation options:

• Using the srvadmin-install.sh shell script

NOTE

: For information about Ubuntu installation, see Dell EMC OpenManage Ubuntu and Debian Repositories.

NOTE: The Server Administrator .deb packages are not carried in the OM DVD, it is supported only through repository.

NOTE: If you have downloaded the managed system software installer (available as a .tar.gz le), the srvadmin-install.sh shell

script is present as setup.sh in the root directory.

NOTE: On a successful import of settings using srvadmin-install.sh (OMDVD) or setup.sh (webpack), the exported preferences

stored in the default folder /opt/dell/backup/openmanage are deleted. In case the import fails, the failure is logged and

preferences are rolled back to the defaults.

NOTE: When you upgrade server administrator from the previously installed version, and if you have installed other Dell system

management products, for example DTK, then you may see dependency errors. It is recommended to upgrade or remove the

dependent products before upgrading server administrator.

• Using the RPM command
