156 Installing Managed System Software on Supported Linux Operating Systems
To upgrade all the previously installed packages using individual RPMs,
perform the following steps:
a
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
...
b
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:
1
Navigate to the
srvadmin/linux/supportscripts
directory on the CD.
Navigate to
SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/supportscripts
directory if you
are using the DVD.
2
Run the
srvadmin-openipmi.sh
shell script as shown below.
sh srvadmin-openipmi.sh install
