On Redhat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), CentOS, Oracle Enterprise Server (OES), and RedFlag,
you can use rpm or yum to install the NetWorker software. Using the yum program allows
you to install the required operating system packages automatically, as necessary. On
SuSE, you can only use rpm to install the NetWorker software.
From the directory that contains the extracted NetWorker software packages, use the
appropriate installer application to install NetWorker:
◆ To use yum, type:
yum localinstall --nogpgcheck package [package]...
where package [package]... is a list of the software package required for the
installation type. Table 17 on page 86 provide a list of the software packages required
for each installation type. Specify optional packages such as language packs and man
pages in rpm command after the required packages for the installation type.

command fails and provides a list of missing packages. Manually install the package
dependencies and run the yum command again.
◆ To use rpm, type:
rpm -ivh package [package]...
where package [package]... is a list of the software package required for the
installation type. Table 17 on page 86 provides a list of the software packages
required for each installation type. Specify optional packages such as language packs
and man pages in rpm command after the required packages for the installation type.
