Server Administrator Version 7.4 Installation Guide

The prerequisites are:

• Log in as root.
• The running kernel must have loadable module support enabled.
• The /opt directory must have at least 250 MB of free space, and the /tmp, /etc, and /var directories must each have at least 20 MB of free space.
• Install the ucd-snmp or net-snmp package that is provided with the operating system if you use SNMP to manage the server. If you want to use supporting agents for the ucd-snmp or net-snmp agent, you must install the operating system support for the SNMP standard before you install Server Administrator. For more information about installing SNMP, see the installation instructions for the operating system you are running on the system.

• In case of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.2 and above and SLES 11 SP2, install the wsman and sblim packages from the operating system DVD. See, To install the wsman and sblim packages
• Install all the prerequisite RPMs required for successful installation.

  If the system had VMware ESX (version 4.0 or 4.1) factory-installed, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (versions 5.x and 6.0), or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (version 10 and 11), see the Dependent RPMs for Remote Enablement section for information on any RPMs that you need to manually install prior to installing managed system software. Typically, you may not need to manually install any RPMs.
