Overview
The Dell™ OpenManage™ installer provides installation scripts and RPM
packages specific to your operating system to install and uninstall Dell
OpenManage Server Administrator and other managed system software
components. These installation scripts and RPMs are located in the
SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/RPMS/<operating_system> directory.
The custom install script srvadmin-install.sh allows custom and interactive
installation. By including the srvadmin-install.sh script in your Linux scripts,
you can install Server Administrator on single or multiple systems and locally
or across a network.
The second install method uses the Server Administrator RPM packages
provided in the custom directories and the Linux rpm command. You can
write Linux scripts that install Server Administrator on a single or multiple
systems locally or across a network.
Using a combination of the two install methods is not recommended and may
require that you manually install required Server Administrator RPM
packages provided in the custom directories, using the Linux rpm command.
