What’s New in this Release
Server Administrator installation 7.2 A01 allows you to install "Server Administrator" in a granular way on Linux OS flavors
where you can choose not to install management interfaces like SNMP, Command Line Interface, Operating System Logging,
and so on "Server Administrator" functionality is the same in A00 and A01. You can upgrade to A01 from previous versions
(OM 5.x, 6.x and OM 7.x).
Once you have installed “Server Administrator”, to add more "Server Administrator" specific components, run the install
script again and select the required components. To uninstall any sub components of Server Administrator, you must
uninstall the complete application.
Note: You cannot upgrade Server Administrator 7.2 A00 to A01.
Installation
* To install Server Administrator on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 Core and Windows Server 2012 Core, Windows-on-Windows
(WOW) mode must be enabled.
* On Microsoft Windows operating systems, run "setup.exe" from the "SYSMGMT\srvadmin\windows" directory of the DVD or
the software package.
NOTE: This step is not necessary if the DVD runs automatically.
* On the Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server operating systems, to perform an "Express Install,"
execute "srvadmin-install.sh -x" from the "SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/supportscripts" directory
* Detailed installation instructions, including silent installation options, can be found in the "Server Administrator
Installation Guide"
User Notes for Supported Windows Operating
Systems
* In the Prerequisite Checker screen, you may get the following message, "An error occurred while attempting to execute a
Visual Basic Script. Please confirm that Visual Basic files are installed correctly. This error occurs when the Prerequisite
Checker calls the "vbstest.vbs" (a Visual Basic [VB]) script to verify the installation environment and fails for some reason.
The possible causes are:
1. Incorrect Internet Explorer "Security" settings. Ensure that "Active Scripting" is enabled by clicking "Tools" -> "Internet
Options" -> "Security" -> "Custom Level" -> "Scripting" -> "Active Scripting" -> "Enable." Ensure that "Scripting of Java Applets"
is enabled by clicking "Tools" -> "Internet Options" -> "Security" -> "Custom Level" -> "Scripting" -> "Scripting of Java Applets" ->
"Enable."
2. Windows Scripting Host (WSH) has disabled the running of VB scripts. By default, WSH is installed during operating system
installation. WSH can be configured to prevent the execution of ".VBS" scripts. On the desktop, right-click "My Computer",
then go to "Open" -> "Tools" -> "Folder Options" -> "File Types." Look for the extension "VBS" and verify that "File Types" is
set to "VBScript Script File". If not, click "Change" and choose "Microsoft Windows Based Script Host" as the application to run
the script.
3. WSH is the wrong version, is corrupted, or is not installed. By default, WSH is installed during operating system
installation. To download the current WSH version, go to: "http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms950396.aspx"
4. The Scrrun.dll file may not be registered. Register it manually by running the following command: "regsvr32 Scrrun.dll"
* A new console window must be opened and CLI commands executed from that window after an "Unattended Installation"
has completed. It is not possible to execute CLI commands from the same console window on which Server Administrator is
installed.
