already installed, a warning message is displayed. Install the
32-bit versions using "rpm -Uvh * -- force" to bypass the warning.
* To avoid warnings concerning the RPM package key during
installation, mount the CD or package, and import the key using the
command:
rpm --import /mnt/cdrom/srvadmin/linux/RPM-GPG-KEY
* If you performed a default manual install of your Linux
operating system without using Dell Server Assistant, you
will need a set of Server Administrator-dependent RPM files
installed prior to installing Server Administrator. These RPM files
can be found on the Red Hat operating system media. You can locate
them under the "/srvadmin/linux/RPMS" folder on the CD or software
package. Under this folder, there are subfolders "RH3_i386,"
"RH3_x86_64," "RH4_i386," and "RH4_x86_64." Navigate to the
subfolder that matches your Linux operating system and run
"rpm –Uvh *" to install these RPM files prior to installing
Server Administrator.
* If you have performed a non-default install of your Linux
operating system using your Linux operating system media, you may
see missing RPM file dependencies while installing Server
Administrator. Server Administrator is a 32-bit
application. When installed on a system running a 64-bit version of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system, the Server Administrator
remains a 32-bit application, while the device drivers installed by
Server Administrator are 64-bit. If you attempt to install Server
Administrator on a system running Red Hat Enterprise Linux version
3 or version 4 (x86-64), be sure to install the applicable 32-bit
versions of the missing RPM file dependencies. The 32-bit RPM
versions always have "i386" in the file name extension. You may also
experience failed shared object files (files with "so" in the file
name extension) dependencies. In this case, you can determine which
RPM is needed to install the shared object by using the RPM
"--whatprovides" switch. For example:
rpm -q --whatprovides libpam.so.0
An RPM name such as "pam-0.75-64" could be returned, so obtain and
install the "pam-0.75-64.i386.rpm." When Server Administrator is
installed on a system running a 64-bit version of a Linux operating
system, ensure that the "compat-libstdc++-<version>.i386.rpm" RPM
package is installed. You will need to resolve the dependencies
manually by installing the missing RPM files from your Linux
operating system media.
* Source packages for RPMs are available on a CD image that is
available from the Dell Support website at "support.dell.com."
* The OpenIPMI device driver used by Server Administrator will
conflict with the Intel IMB device driver. Dell requires that you
uninstall the IMB driver before installing Server Administrator.
