Executing a CIM Plug-in

on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5

To execute a Common Information Model (CIM) plug-in on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5,
you must create the following symbolic links:

1. cd /usr/lib on RHEL 5

2. Search for libcrypto, libssl, and libsysfs libraries as follows:

ls -lrt libcrypto*, ls -lrt libssl*, ls -lrt libsysfs*

3. If the files libcrypto.so.4, libssl.so.4, and libsysfs.so.1 are missing,

manually create sym links as follows:

ln -s libcrypto.so libcrypto.so.4

ln -s libssl.so libssl.so.4

ln -s libsysfs.so libsysfs.so.1

For more information about CIM, see

MegaRAID Storage Manager Support on the

VMware ESXi Operating System

.

If the .so files are not present in the /usr/lib directory, create a link with the existing
version of the library. For example, if libcrypto.so.6 is present and libcrypto.so is not,
create the link as follows:

ln -s libcrypto.so.6 libcrypto.so.4
