Release Notes
file:///T|/htdocs/SOFTWARE/smsom/5.3/en/readme/readme_ins.txt[10/23/2012 10:33:50 AM]
* There are a few additional components that can be installed on a
system that already has Server Administrator installed. For
example, you can install Online Diagnostics on a system
that has previously been installed with managed system software.
On such a system, while uninstalling Server Administrator, only
those RPM packages that are not required by any of the newly
installed components are uninstalled. In the above example, Online 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") 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 upgrading, all installed Server Administrator components,
including ones that are not needed but were previously installed,
will also be upgraded. The upgrade will not attempt to detect and
remove unwanted components.
* Under some conditions with DKMS versions prior to version 2.0.9,
device driver building may fail. This could prevent Server
Administrator from installing. You may see the following
error message:
"Building module:
