Installing OMSA using Yum

Hello,

I am giving this is a try, I have not progressed very far before I have encountered errors.

The hardware is a T310

The software is XenServer 5.6 FP1

This command appeared to complete OK:
wget -q -O - http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/bootstrap.cgi | bash

I then tried:
yum install srvadmin-all

Which failed, I can't figure out how to copy all of the output, but here is the last part of the output:
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
sblim-sfcb-1.3.7-1.6.4.el5.i386 from dell-omsa-indep has depsolving problems
--> Missing Dependency: perl(LWP::UserAgent) is needed by package sblim-sfcb-1.3.7-1.6.4.el5.i386 (dell-omsa-indep)
srvadmin-xmlsup-6.5.0-1.141.2.el5.i386 from dell-omsa-indep has depsolving problems
--> Missing Dependency: libxslt.so.1 is needed by package srvadmin-xmlsup-6.5.0-1.141.2.el5.i386 (dell-omsa-indep)
Error: Missing Dependency: perl(LWP::UserAgent) is needed by package sblim-sfcb-1.3.7-1.6.4.el5.i386 (dell-omsa-indep)
Error: Missing Dependency: libxslt.so.1 is needed by package srvadmin-xmlsup-6.5.0-1.141.2.el5.i386 (dell-omsa-indep)
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.

Hi,
Open /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo and

Add enabled=1 at the end of Base & Update config; just compare the below with your file.

[base]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os
#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5
exclude=kernel-xen*, *xen*
enabled=1

#released updates
[updates]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates
mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=updates
#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5
exclude=kernel-xen*, *xen*
enabled=1

--------------------
Now run yum clean all
and proceed from yum install srvadmin-all
Let me know how it goes.

First command does not work.

Do I need to be in a particular directory?

There is more than a page of output (help for the command), how can I scroll back to the top to see the initial error message?

The error is:

Error: Need to pass a list of pkgs to erase
usage: yum [options] COMMAND

1. Does your servers have direct internet access ? or is this through a proxy server ?

try accessing " wget http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/platform_independent/rh50/srvadmin-i386/srvadmin-jre-6.5.0-1.145.1.el5.i386.rpm "

and see if you are able to download this file. If successful then try

2. try from step 2.

2. yum clean all

3. wget -q -O - http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/bootstrap.cgi | bash

4. yum install srvadmin-all

It may be a temp issue with dell site. Let me know how it goes.

All the steps completed

At the completion of step 4, installation reported as successful.

I restarted the server and tried to connect:
https://ip_address:1311

No web page loaded

Any suggestions?

try doing a telnet to the server

telnet ip_address 1311. See if u can connect to the port. if you are not able to connect. then check to see if the OMSA is running by

netstat -nl | grep 1311. This should be in listening state. If this is in the running state.

the see the previous posts for the firewall rules to be configured.
