USER NOTES FOR SUPPORTED RED HAT ENTERPRISE LINUX AND SUSE LINUX
ENTERPRISE SERVER OPERATING SYSTEMS
======================================================================
* If your system comes with a factory installed Red Hat Enterprise
Linux (version 3) operating system for Intel EM64T, then prior to
installing Server Administrator, you will need to install a set of
Server Administrator-dependent RPM files. For convenience, these
32-bit versions of the RPM files are provided on the CD or package.
Navigate to the subfolder "/srvadmin/linux/RPMS/RH3_x86_64" and run
"rpm -Uvh *" to install these RPM files before installing Server
Administrator. If the 64-bit version of the dependent RPMs is
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 (versions
3 and 4) for Intel EM64T, 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
