Installing Managed System Software on Supported Linux Operating Systems 163
NOTE: Just before the Server Administrator RPMs are upgraded, the srvadmin-
install.sh shell script automatically calls the srvadmin-openipmi.sh shell script to
ensure that a sufficient version of the OpenIPMI driver is currently installed on the
system. If a sufficient version is not found, the srvadmin-install.sh shell script calls
the srvadmin-openipmi.sh shell script to attempt to install a sufficient version. If the
attempt fails for any reason, an appropriate error message will be displayed with
instructions describing how to resolve the error. After resolving any error, you
should then re-run the srvadmin-install.sh shell script to upgrade the managed
system components.
Uninstalling Managed System Software
You can uninstall managed system software from the Red Hat Enterprise
Linux or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server command line. Additionally, you can
perform an unattended uninstallation on multiple systems simultaneously.
Prerequisites for Uninstalling Managed System Software
You must be logged in as root.
Uninstalling Managed System Software From the Red Hat Enterprise Linux or SUSE
Linux Enterprise Server Command Line
An uninstallation script is installed when Server Administrator is installed.
You can execute the script by typing srvadmin-uninstall.sh and then
pressing <Enter>.
NOTE: When executed, the srvadmin-uninstall.sh will not attempt to uninstall the
OpenIPMI driver even if the OpenIPMI driver was installed or upgraded during
previous execution of the srvadmin-install.sh script or the srvadmin-openipmi.sh
script.
