Hi Team,

Thank you all for your feedback :

The fix for this issue is :

A) If installation went till end the do :

  1. 1. /opt/EMC/avamarer/uninstall
  2. 2. rm –rf /opt/PostgreSQL /DTO/PostgreSQL /DTO/nsr /nsr /opt/EMC /DTO/EMC /.BitRock/*
    3. cd /DTO

B) ELSE :

  1. 4. Remove these software packages (AER will re-install them)

rpm -e ksh-93u-0.10.1.x86_64;

rpm -e netcat-1.10-1005.22.x86_64;

rpm -e man-2.5.2-17.16.x86_64;

rpm -e openmotif-2.3.2-5.1.x86_64;

rpm -e openmotif-libs-2.3.2-5.1.x86_64;

rpm -e libacl-32bit-2.2.47-30.34.29.x86_64;

rpm -e libcap2-32bit-2.11-2.15.x86_64;

rpm -e libpng14-14-1.4.4-2.1.x86_64;

rpm -e groff-1.18.1.1-167.18.61.x86_64;

rpm -e libattr-32bit-2.4.43-1.18.x86_64;

rpm -e glibc-locale-32bit-2.11.1-0.62.1;

  1. 5. umask 022

have you run umask 022 before running the commands?

Which procedure are you following?

You may want to look in the /tmp/ directory for logfiles from the installers and investigate further why the networker installer exited abnormally.
