Installing OMSA on Rocky Linux 9

I'm following instruction https://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/dsu/ but getting problems with it:

1) When "bash bootstrap.cgi" asks to import keys, if I select 'yes', then last key (0x274E9C32857A9594.asc) can't be imported:

[root@fa07 ~]# bash bootstrap.cgi
Checking for Dell GPG keys...
Do you want to import Dell GPG keys (y/n)?y
    0x756ba70b1019ced6.asc: Importing key into RPM.
                            Importing key into GPG.
    0x1285491434D8786F.asc: Importing key into RPM.
                            Importing key into GPG.
    0xca77951d23b66a9d.asc: Importing key into RPM.
                            Importing key into GPG.
    0x3CA66B4946770C59.asc: Importing key into RPM.
                            Importing key into GPG.
    0x274E9C32857A9594.asc: Importing key into RPM.
GPG-KEY import failed.
   Downloading the key failed or insufficient permissions to import the key.

 

2) If I proceed without importing keys, then "dell-system-update.repo" created; "yum install dell-system-update" works, but problem happens at step "yum install srvadmin-all":

[root@fa07 ~]# yum install srvadmin-all
Last metadata expiration check: 0:00:34 ago on Mon 22 Aug 2022 08:21:11 AM EDT.
No match for argument: srvadmin-all
Error: Unable to find a match: srvadmin-all
[root@fa07 ~]# 

I see https://www.dell.com/community/Systems-Management-General/Installing-OMSA-on-Red-Hat-8/td-p/7318742 reported something similar, but with other OS. Can it be that reason is the same here and Dell just doesn't support Rocky Linux 9 (which should be however quite similar to RHEL8 and we didn't expect to have problems with it)?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hello antonchivkunov,

 

Thank you I received your private message.

 

We don't have support for Rocky Linux 9. Someone in the community may have tried it and can share their experience.

 

You may try Dell EMC OpenManage Server Administrator Managed Node for RHEL 9.0, v10.3.0.0

https://dell.to/3TcYJFN

Check the  section for  Compatible Systems to see if your host model is listed.

This is also an issue on RHEL9.

 

 

 

[root@rhel9 ~]# bash bootstrap.cgi

Edit:  Additional information

It looks like perhaps the key signature file isn't complete and is referring to a defunct key server?  I manually downloaded the file and attempted to import:

 

[root@rhel9 ~]# rpm --import 0x274E9C32857A9594.asc
curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 408
error: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x274E9C32857A9594.asc: import read failed(2).
[root@rhel9 ~]# 

 

 

If I try that URL manually in a browser I get the following error:

No results found

No results found: No keys found

Sadly, this is still an issue it seems... even for AlmaLinux 9

It looks like Dell has typo'd or missed something... Please fix.

Installing Dell EMC OpenManage Server Administrator Managed Node for RHEL 9.0, v10.3.0.0 as suggested by Charles R worked very well for me on Rocky 9.1 for a PowerEdge R630

You need to enable the "CodeReady Builder" repo in order to allow `openwsman-client` to be discovered:

 

dnf -y install 'dnf-command(config-manager)'; dnf config-manager --set-enabled crb

 

After this, `srvadmin-all` should install correctly.
