disk
directory, find and read thereadme.txt

If you select Client installation for a PC used to monitor servers, and if there are no available servers with a registered framework on the local subnet (that is, servers with a complete installation of MegaRAID Storage Manager software), the server screen appears. The server screen does not list any servers. You can use this screen to manage systems remotely.
To install the software using 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:The
-ru popup
command removed pop-up from installation list.You also can run non-interactive installation using the
RunRPM.sh
command.The installer offers three types of setup options:
- Complete – This option installs all the features of the product.
- Client Components Only – The storelib feature of the product are not installed in this type of installation. As a result, the resident system can only administer and configure all of the servers in the subnet, but it cannot serve as a server.
- StandAlone – Only the networking feature is not installed in this case, so the resident system is not a part of the network. This means the system cannot browse any other MSM servers in the subnet, and the MSM servers cannot will recognize it as a server.
This installation helps you select any of the setup types, but if you run
RunRPM.sh
, it installs the complete feature.
