Hi All,
We now have OMSA 5.4.1 available for testing in the Dell hardware
repository at http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/. OMSA 5.4.1 supports
the PowerEdge R805, R905, and T605 systems. The 5.4.1 repository still
contains OMSA 5.4 for systems other than those listed. If you have one
of the listed systems (or even if you don't), please give the 5.4.1
repository a try. After a few success reports, we will update the
'latest' link to 5.4.1. The 'latest_quarterly' link will remain on 5.4.
To try the 5.4.1 repository, bootstrap the repository as normal, then
change the config as follows:
YUM:
In both /etc/yum.repos.d/dell-hw-indep-repository.repo and
/etc/yum.repos.d/dell-hw-specific-repository.repo, find the string
"repo_config=$repo_config", and change it to read,
"repo_config=OMSA_5.4.1".
UP2DATE:
same as yum, except you need to change the string in
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources in two places, rather than in the yum
repository files.
SUSE 10:
No idea. Anybody who knows how to do this should let me know. :) See
above for the general outline.
Note that the repository is still community-support only.
Thanks,
Jeff Mendoza
