Frequently Asked Questions

What must be done before installing Server Administrator if I am using Linux OS variants?

The OpenIPMI device driver conflicts with the Intel IMB device driver, so you must uninstall the IMB driver first.

If dependency issues related to RPMs occur during installation, how do I resolve them?

Install the missing RPMs from SYSMGMT/srvadmin/linux/RPMS/supportRPMS. If unavailable, use operating system media.

How should I safely uninstall Server Administrator if I am not using the srvadmin-uninstall.sh command?

Run the srvadmin-services stop command to prevent services from continuing to run before removing the RPMs.

What steps are required for an unattended installation of Server Administrator?

After running the process, a new console window must be opened to execute any follow-up CLI commands.
