Installing Managed System Software on Supported Linux Operating Systems 157
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
SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/supportscripts
directory.
2
Run the
srvadmin-openipmi.sh
shell script as shown below.
sh srvadmin-openipmi.sh install
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
