OpenPegasus post install steps ============================== When this package is installed (as RPM) on a system with the OpenPegasus CIM server (tog-pegasus), it may be necessary to perform some extra post install steps. These are: Provider Registration: ---------------------- Upon installation it is attempted to register the providers with Pegasus. This can fail if the tog-pegasus service is not running AND cimmofl (the Pegasus offline MOF compiler) isn't installed. In this case it is necessary to run the following command with tog-pegasus running: /usr/share/sblim-cmpi-base/provider-register.sh -t pegasus \ -r /usr/share/sblim-cmpi-base/Linux_Base.registration \ -m /usr/share/sblim-cmpi-base/Linux_Base.mof Make Sure Providers Can Be Found: --------------------------------- The providers of this package are installed into the /usr/lib/cmpi (or /usr/lib64/cmpi) directory. Depending on the configuration of Pegasus this directory might not be in the search path for providers. In this case you should create symbolic links to the Pegasus provider directory by issueing the following command: ln -s /usr/lib/cmpi/lib* /usr/lib/Pegasus/providers assuming that /usr/lib/Pegasus/providers is the configured Pegasus provider directory. Provider Deregistration: ------------------------ In order to properly de-register the providers when deinstalling this package the tog-pegasus service must be active. The deinstallation will fail otherwise. Alternatively it is possible to deregister the providers BEFORE uninstalling this package with the following command: /usr/share/sblim-cmpi-base/provider-register.sh -d -t pegasus \ -r /usr/share/sblim-cmpi-base/Linux_Base.registration \ -m /usr/share/sblim-cmpi-base/Linux_Base.mof
