I manually installed my Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 - x86_64 or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 x86_64
operating system and am seeing RPM dependencies when trying to install Server Administrator. Where
could I find these dependent RPM files?
For Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the dependent RPM files are on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux installation
CD. For convenience, they are captured in one of the following directories corresponding to a supported
Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system:
/srvadmin/linux/RPMS/supportRPMS/RH3_i386
/srvadmin/linux/RPMS/supportRPMS/RH3_x86_64
/srvadmin/linux/RPMS/supportRPMS/RH4_i386
/srvadmin/linux/RPMS/supportRPMS/RH4_x86_64
For SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, the dependent RPM files are captured in the following directory:
/srvadmin/linux/RPMS/supportRPMS/SUSE9_x86_64
For instance, in the RH4_x86_64 subdirectory, execute the following command to install or update all
the dependent RPM files:
rpm –Uvh /srvadmin/linux/RPMS/supportRPMS/RH4_x86_64
You will then be able to continue with the Server Administrator installation.
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 CD or
package, and import the key using a command such as the following:
rpm --import /mnt/cdrom/srvadmin/linux/RPM-GPG-KEY
Why is the Prerequisite Checker not available under Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux
Enterprise Server?
The Prerequisite Checker is built into the omilcore RPM package. The checker uses a combination of
RPM dependency checks and Dell hardware checks.
