PowerEdge Diagnostics requires packages such as
"srvadmin-omilcore-X.Y.Z-N" and "srvadmin-hapi-X.Y.Z-N." These
packages will not get uninstalled during an uninstallation of Server
Administrator.
In this case, if you try to install Server Administrator later
by running the "sh srvadmin-install.sh" command, you
will get the following message:
"Server Administrator version X.Y.Z is currently installed.
Installed Components are:
- srvadmin-omilcore-X.Y.Z-N
- srvadmin-hapi-X.Y.Z-N
Do you want to upgrade Server Administrator to X.Y.Z?
Press ('y' for yes | 'Enter' to exit): "
On pressing 'y', only those Server Administrator packages (in the
above example, "srvadmin-omilcore-X.Y.Z-N" and
"srvadmin-hapi-X.Y.Z-N") that are residing on the system are
upgraded.
If you have to install other Dell OpenManage components as well, you
will have to run the following command once again:
"sh srvadmin-install.sh"
* While OM 4.5 is upgraded to OM 5.0 in ESX, the following error
message may be displayed:
error: Failed dependencies:
openipmi >= 35.12 is needed by srvdmin-ipmi-5.0.0-NNN.rhel3
When you face this issue, manually install the relevant openipmi
package applicable to the operating system (in this case,
openipmi-35.12.RHEL3-3dkms.noarch.rpm) and dkms-2.0.10-1.noarch.rpm
(if necessary). Use the “rpm” command and then proceed with
upgrading other Dell OpenManage components using srvadmin-install.sh
script. These openipmi packages can be located under
srvadmin/linux/RPMS directory on the CD or on the software package.
You may also face this issue while upgrading from ESX 2.x to ESX 3.0.
You can avoid this issue by uninstalling Dell OpenManage 4.5 first
and then upgrading to ESX 3.0. You can later install Dell OpenManage
5.0 on ESX 3.0 (67844)
* Installation of some packages like Dell PowerEdge Diagnostics
require that you have some Server Administrator components
(like "srvadmin-omilcore-X.Y.Z-N" and "srvadmin-hapi-X.Y.Z-N")
available
on your system. Thus, during the installation of PowerEdge
Diagnostics, you should install these dependent packages as well.
Later, if you try to install Server Administrator by running the
command, "sh srvadmin-install.sh," you will get the following
