* Problems may arise while upgrading Server Administrator in
some circumstances when the upgrade is attempted and not completely
successful. This could happen, for instance, when a user is doing a
manual RPM update on a system requiring an updated OpenIPMI driver
and that driver is not installed. Some features depending on that
driver will not install, which is correct. However, older
installed features that should have been uninstalled, may not be
uninstalled. This leads to mixed versions of Server
Administrator being installed on a system. This is not a viable
installation. This is due to limitations in some versions of the RPM
utility.
During the upgrade, the following messages may be displayed:
"srvadmin-omhip:
The required dependency key, "hapi.omilcore.version", in the
"/etc/omreg.cfg" file is not present."
"Installation aborted."
"error: %pre(srvadmin-omhip-5.2.0-200.i386) scriptlet failed, exit
status 1"
"error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping
srvadmin-omhip-5.2.0-200"
Using the "rpm -qa | grep srvadmin" command displays the Server
Administrator features that are installed. The following output may
be displayed:
srvadmin-deng-5.2.0-200
srvadmin-omhip-4.4.0-339
srvadmin-jre-5.2.0-200
srvadmin-omacore-5.2.0-200
srvadmin-cm-5.2.0-200
srvadmin-omilcore-5.2.0-200
srvadmin-odf-5.2.0-200
To fix the problem, perform the following steps:
1. Delete the older feature. For example, use the following command
"rpm -e srvadmin-omhip-4.4.0-339"
2. Resolve the dependency issue. In this case, install the proper
set of OpenIPMI drivers. Locate the "supportscripts" directory on
the "Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation" DVD and type
"./srvadmin-openipmi.sh install".
3. Install the uninstalled RPMs from the "custom/srvadmin-base"
