Installing Managed System Software on Supported Linux Operating Systems 113

To upgrade all the previously installed packages using individual RPMs, perform the following steps:

Query the rpm database for all installed srvadmin packages by typing:

rpm -qa | grep srvadmin

The query displays a list of all installed packages, including any existing or older versions.

For example:

srvadmin-omilcore-4.3.0-1.386.rpm

srvadmin-hapi-4.3.0-1.386.rpm

srvadmin-deng-4.3.0-1.386.rpm

srvadmin-isvc-4.3.0-1.386.rpm

...

Type the RPM upgrade command, incorporating the packages returned in step a. This command

updates the installed Dell OpenManage software components.

For example:

rpm -Uhv srvadmin-omilcore-4.3.0-1.386.rpm srvadmin-hapi-4.3.0-

1.386.rpm srvadmin-deng-4.3.0-1.386.rpm srvadmin-isvc-4.3.0-

1.386.rpm

If the OpenIPMI driver is currently not installed on the system, or the version of the OpenIPMI driver

installed on the system is less than the minimum version that is required by Server Administrator, the

srvadmin-hapi RPM will fail to upgrade and will display an error message stating that you must

install/upgrade the OpenIPMI driver. In such a case, any RPMs that depend on the srvadmin-hapi RPM

will also fail to upgrade. In such cases, you must install/upgrade the OpenIPMI driver by performing the

following additional steps:

Navigate to the

srvadmin/linux/supportscripts

directory.

Run the

srvadmin-openipmi.sh

shell script as shown below.

sh srvadmin-openipmi.sh install
