Installing Managed System Software on Supported Linux Operating Systems 147
Distributing Unattended Installation Packages
The custom unattended installation package is located in the directory you
created in the preceding step 6 of the custom installation (see "Custom
Install"). This directory contains all of the RPMs for the managed system
software components to distribute.
1
Configure your ISV software distribution software to execute rpm –i
*.rpm
after the unattended installation package has been distributed.
2 Use your ISV distribution software to distribute the unattended
installation package to the remote systems. The RPM command installs
Server Administrator on each remote system.
Uninstalling Managed System Software
You can uninstall managed system software from the Red Hat Enterprise
Linux or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server command line. Additionally, you can
perform an unattended uninstallation on multiple systems simultaneously.
Prerequisites for Uninstalling Managed System Software
You must be logged in as root.
Uninstalling Managed System Software From the Red Hat Enterprise Linux or SUSE
Linux Enterprise Server Command Line
An uninstallation script is installed when Server Administrator is installed.
You can execute the script by typing srvadmin-uninstall.sh and then
pressing <Enter>.
NOTE: When executed, the srvadmin-uninstall.sh will not attempt to uninstall the
OpenIPMI driver even if the OpenIPMI driver was installed or upgraded during previous
execution of the srvadmin-install.sh script or the srvadmin-openipmi.sh script.
Custom Uninstallation of Specific Components
Some individual components of Dell OpenManage can be uninstalled
without uninstalling all of Dell OpenManage. Following are examples:
To uninstall only the Web server, use the command:
rpm –e `rpm -qa | grep srvadmin-iws`
To uninstall storage, use the command:
rpm –e `rpm -qa | grep srvadmin-storage`
