Installation : Executing a CIM Plug-in on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5

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

See Installing and Supporting MegaRAID Storage Manager Software on VMware for more information about CIM.

 

* 

NOTE 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

On a 64-bit operating system, the system libraries are present in the /usr/lib64 directory by default. However, for supporting CIM Plug-in, make sure that the libraries are also present in /usr/lib by installing the appropriate RPMs.
