Linux operating systems that support .rpm packages, allow you to double-click the

HighPoint Web RAID Management .rpm file to start the installation process.

1.

Copy the Web RAID Management package from the RR268x Software CD, to the

desktop of the Linux operating system. The .rpm file is located in HighPoint

RAID Management Software – RR2xxx - Linux – WebGui-Linux.tbz.

2. Extract the .tbz file to the desktop, and browse to the appropriate .rpm file (there

are 32 and 64-bit options).

3.

Double click the .rpm file – this should open the operating systems’ software

installer. Enter the Administrative password when prompted and proceed with

installation.

4.

The package can also be installed manually, using a terminal. Lon in as “root”,

open a terminal, and browse to the location of the .rpm file. Run the following

command:

5.

# rpm -i hptsvr-https-1.4-8.i386.rpm (or hptsvr-https-1.4-8.x86_64.rpm)

Note: The i386 rpm package can also work on 64-bit systems if you have 32-bit

runtime libraries installed. If you use the x86_64 rpm package, please make sure the

controller driver has 64-bit ioctl support.
