Installing Managed System Software on Supported Linux Operating Systems 157
Reattempt to upgrade the srvadmin-hapi RPM and any other RPMs that
failed to upgrade as they depend on the srvadmin-hapi RPM. Perform the
following steps:
1
Navigate back to the previous directory that you were at.
2
Run the following commands to see which Server Administrator packages
were previously successfully upgraded.
rpm -qa | grep srvadmin
The query displays a list of all installed Server Administrator packages.
Those that have already been upgraded will display the new version
number. Those that have not yet been upgraded will display the old
version number.
3
Upgrade every RPM in the directory that was not previously upgraded,
because the
srvadmin-hapi
RPM
previously failed to upgrade, by running
the following command:
rpm -Uhv srvadmin-hapi*.rpm srvadmin-isvc*.rpm
srvadmin-omhip*.rpm srvadmin-<any-other-
packages>*.rpm
If the OpenIPMI RPM for a version of the OpenIPMI driver that meets the
minimum version of the OpenIPMI driver that is required by Server
Administrator is currently installed on the system, but the OpenIPMI driver
modules have not yet been built and installed for the given version of the
OpenIPMI driver because the kernel-source RPM is required but is not
currently installed, the srvadmin-hapi RPM will fail to upgrade and will
display an error message. The error message will state that you need to install
the kernel-source RPM and build the OpenIPMI driver. In such a case, any
RPMs that depend on the srvadmin-hapi RPM will also fail to upgrade. You
must install the kernel-source RPM, and build and install the OpenIPMI
driver modules, by performing the following additional steps:
1
On systems running Red Hat Enterprise Linux (version 4) and SUSE
Linux Enterprise Server, the
kernel*-devel
RPMs provide the necessary
source for building kernel modules. Install the
kernel-source
RPM or
kernel*-devel
RPMs by running the following command from where you
have found or copied the RPM(s):
rpm -ihv kernel*.rpm
2
Navigate to the
srvadmin/linux/supportscripts
directory.
