3 If necessary, mount the DVD to a location of your choice
using the
mount command or a similar command.
NOTE: On the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 operating system,
DVDs are auto-mounted with the -noexec mount option.
This option does not allow you to run any executable from
the DVD. You need to manually mount the DVD-ROM and then
run the executables.
4 Navigate to the SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/supportscripts
directory. Execute the
srvadmin-install.sh script as follows:
sh srvadmin-install.sh --express
or
sh srvadmin-install.sh -x
The script installs the typical software suite for your system
configuration.
NOTE: You can log the output of the RPM installation by adding
2>&1 | tee –a /var/log/srvadmin.log to
the above shell script execution. The resulting command is
sh srvadmin-install.sh 2>&1|tee –a
/var/log/srvadmin.log
