Custom RPMs Based Installation
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.x operating system, DVDs are automounted with the -
noexec
mount option. This option does not allow you to run any executable from the DVD. You
have to manually mount the DVD and then run executables.
1. Log in as root to the system running the supported operating system where you want to install the
managed system components.
2. Insert the Systems Management Tools and Documentation DVD into the DVD drive.
3. Navigate to the operating system specific directory corresponding to the system.
4. Type the following command:
rpm –ivh Server-Instrumentation/<arch>/*.rpm
add-StorageManagement/<arch>/*.rpm
RemoteEnablement/<arch>/*.rpm
Server Administrator services do not start automatically.
