142 Installing Managed System Software on Supported Linux Operating Systems
During installation of Server Administrator using RPM, the srvadmin-hapi
RPM will check if a sufficient version of the OpenIPMI device driver is
currently installed on the system. If a sufficient version is not found, the
srvadmin-hapi RPM will fail to install and will display an error message
stating that you must install/upgrade the OpenIPMI device driver. In such
a case, RPMs that depend on the srvadmin-hapi RPM will also fail to install.
In such cases, you must install/upgrade the OpenIPMI driver by performing
the following additional steps:
1
Navigate to the SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/supportscripts directory.
2 Run the following srvadmin-openipmi.sh shell script:
sh srvadmin-openipmi.sh install
Re-attempt to install the srvadmin-hapi RPM and any other RPMs that
failed to install as they depend on the srvadmin-hapi RPM. Perform the
following steps:
1
Navigate to the SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/custom directory.
2 Run the following command to see which Server Administrator packages
were previously successfully installed.
rpm –qa | grep srvadmin
The query displays a list of all installed Server Administrator packages.
3 Install every RPM in the directory that was previously not installed, as they
depended on the
srvadmin-hapi RPM that previously failed to install, by
running the following command:
rpm –ihv srvadmin-hapi*.rpm srvadmin-isvc*.rpm
srvadmin-omhip*.rpm srvadmin-<any-other-
packages>*.rpm
