Manager for Linux Operating System

Follow these steps if you need to install the MegaRAID Storage Manager software on a
system running Red Hat Linux 3.0, 4.0,5.0, 6.0 or SUSE Linux/SLES 9, 10, and 11:

1. Copy the MSM_linux_installer-11.02.00-00.tar.gz file to a temporary

folder.

2. Untar the MSM_linux_installer-11.02.00-00.tar.gz file using the following

command:

tar -zxvf MSM_linux_installer-11.02.00-00-...tar.gz

A new disk directory is created.

3. Go to the new disk directory.

4. In the disk directory, find and read the readme.txt file.

5. To start the installation, enter the following command:

csh install.sh -a

If you select Client installation for a computer that is used to monitor servers, and if no
available servers exist with a registered framework on the local subnet (that is, servers
with a complete installation of the MegaRAID Storage Manager software), the
MegaRAID Storage Manager - Host Name window appears. The MegaRAID Storage
Manager - Host Name window does not list any servers. You can use this window to
manage systems remotely.

To install the software using an interactive mode, execute the command ./install.sh
from the installation disk.

To install the product in a non-interactive or silent mode, use the command
./install.sh [-options] [-ru popup]

from the installation disk. The installation

options are as follows:
