Upgrade the Red Hat Enterprise Linux or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
system using a single long command or individual RPMs. The single long
command is a combination of RPMs and can be executed by typing just
one command.
Upgrade with the following command if you are upgrading from version 5.0:
rpm -Uhv `rpm -q --queryformat "%{NAME}* "
\`rpm -qa | grep srvadmin\``
If upgrading from 4.
x
, use a command like the following:
rpm -Uhv openipmi/openipmi*.rpm srvadmin-
ipmi*.rpm `rpm -q --queryformat "%{NAME}* "
\`rpm -qa | grep srvadmin\``
NOTE: The commands upgrade the existing Server Administrator RPM
packages on your system. Starting with version 5.0, the openipmi and
srvadmin-ipmi packages are new requirements for Server Administrator. The
dkms RPM package under the openipmi sub-directory depends on the
openipmi package. You may have to adjust the commands depending on the
status of these packages on your system.
