96 Installing Managed System Software on Supported Linux Operating Systems
The following is an example of custom RPMs-based installation of Server
Administrator, including the installation of the Remote Enablement feature
and the Storage Management Service components.
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 and then run
executables.
1 Log on as root to the system running the supported VMware ESX,
Red Hat Enterprise Linux, or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server operating
system where you want to install the managed system components.
2 Insert the Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation DVD into
the DVD drive.
3 If necessary, mount the DVD using a command such as:
mount /dev/dvdrom /mnt/dvdrom .
4 Navigate to the SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/custom/ <os> /<arch> , where
<os> is ESX41 , ESX40, RHEL4, RHEL5, SLES10 , or SLES11 and
<arch
> is 32-bits or 64-bits. Only 32-bits is supported for ESX and both
32 and 64 bits is supported for RHEL and SLES. Enter the operating
system specific directory corresponding to your system.
5 Type the following command:
rpm -ihv Server-Instrumentation/*.rpm
add-StorageManagement/*.rpm
RemoteEnablement/*.rpm
Server Administrator services do not start automatically.
NOTE: Ensure that you install Server Administrator Web Server or Remote
Enablement, or Server Instrumentation before installing Remote Access
Controller or Storage Management.
srvadmin-storageservices Installs the Storage Services component
