Release Notes

Versions Affected: 7.2 and earlier
* Standalone Server Administrator installation fails on upgraded Win XP SP3 (289721)
During systems management software installation on managed systems or management stations, if the Prerequisite checker
displays a blank Internet Explorer screen, the probable cause is a corrupted Internet Explorer installation. In such cases,
browsing to any site displays the message, "The requested lookup key was not found in any active activation context."
Ensure that you install Internet Explorer correctly before installing your systems management software.
* MSI reference counts affected for Intel SNMP agent install
MSI reference counting takes effect if you install the Intel SNMP agent using the MSI provided by Intel, and then install the
Intel SNMP agent again using the Server Administrator installer. The Intel SNMP agent is not uninstalled during installation of
the MSI; you must remove both installers from the system to remove the agent.

Known Issues on Linux
* After upgrading through YUM repository, Server Administrator settings are not retained in the preference page.
(62999)
User settings are lost during upgrades using ‘rug’. This is seen when you install earlier versions using the installer script and
then modify the Server Administrator webserver settings values like Session Time Out, SSL encryption, Key Signing Algorithm,
Support Link, etc. Then upgrade to the latest release using the ‘rug’ utility. All of these values will default to their original
settings and will have to be re-configured manually.
Versions Affected: 7.2 and earlier
* SBUU modifies .bash_profile. (152668)
Systems Build and Update Utility adds a script to the root user's ".bash_profile" file that prompts the installation of systems
management software.This script may interfere with remote client applications that authenticate using the root user
account on the system,but cannot handle user prompts.
To fix this, edit the ".bash_profile" file and comment the line:
"[ ${SHLVL}...."
Versions Affected: 7.2 and earlier
* Dependency issue during install. (303464)
During an installation, if the “libstdc++.so.5 is needed by srvadmin-<component>" fails, dependency error is displayed.
Install the compatibility libraries from your Linux distribution.
To install a compatibility library, use the following command:
"rpm -ivh compat-libstdc++*.rpm"
Versions Affected: 7.2 and earlier
* Server Administrator components get removed during OS upgrade. (380137)
During an OS upgrade, some of the srvadmin packages may get removed.
After an operating system upgrade, resintall the Server Administrator since the srvadmin packages may not be applicable
for the upgraded operating system. For example, after an upgrade from SLES 10 to SLES 11, Server Administrator needs to
be reinstalled as the SLES 10 srvadmin packages may not work with SLES 11.
