Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if the prerequisite checker throws a Visual Basic Script error?

Ensure Active Scripting and Scripting of Java Applets are enabled in Internet Options security, or review your Windows Scripting Host settings.

Are there known driver conflicts when installing on Linux operating systems?

Yes, the OpenIPMI device driver will conflict with the Intel IMB device driver. You must uninstall the IMB driver before proceeding with installation.

How do I run Command Line Interface (CLI) commands after an unattended installation?

A new console window must be opened to run CLI commands; it is not possible to execute these from the same window where Server Administrator was installed.

What is the correct procedure for uninstalling Server Administrator on Linux?

To prevent service processes from continuing to run, first execute the `srvadmin-services stop` command before removing the Server Administrator RPMs.
