Re: Repo setup on clean EL9 fails

If you don=92t *need* the web server stuff, the following should work for y=
ou. It did for us on EL9 and has done so in the past on previous ELs.

yum install srvadmin-base srvadmin-storageservices
/opt/dell/srvadmin/sbin/srvadmin-services.sh restart (to start everything i=
mmediately w/o reboot)

Hope this helps.

And yes, the GPG issue is annoying. DSU also whined of non-existent keys, m=
aybe another but similar issue.

Any progress at all on fixing the GPG issue?

Disabling GPG checks

[root@nms ~]# yum install srvadmin-all
Last metadata expiration check: 0:00:17 ago on Thu 06 Oct 2022 20:24:27 BST.

You have to install with
yum install srvadmin-all -enablerepo=3Dcrb

since the openwsman-client is in the CRB repo

Is there anyone from Dell listening please?
I understand it's an "unofficial resource" but could you at least fix the G=
PG issue and maybe update the install instructions?

Since all the calls about EL7 support seem to be being ignored, I thought I=
'd start testing EL9

First hurdle; installing the repo fails, so as it stands the ONLY option fo=
r supported OMSA, with updates,  via linux.dell.com is EL8
Of course, I can manually configure the repo, and disable GPG but that is n=
ot right.
Sigh. Come on Dell. SMH.

It appears there is a problem with 0x274E9C32857A9594.asc
So I downloaded that and

[root@cusetup-165 ~]# rpm --import /tmp/0x274E9C32857A9594.asc
error: /tmp/0x274E9C32857A9594.asc: key 1 import failed.
