Hi,
Earlier I got a tip on how to install and run DFM on an Ubuntu server instead of RedHat / SuSE (http://www.eigenmagic.com/2009/06/26/how-to-install-netapp-dfm-on-ubuntu/)
However, I would like to do the same thing with OnCommand Core, but the former DFM routine doesn't seem to work well at all. So, I wonder if someone else has manage to do the same thing with OnCommand Core and succeeded?
Thanks, /P

What kind of problem do you run into?
I know that the Sybase DB used by OnCommand Core isn't compatible with Linux kernels >= 3.0. You need to run the dfm commands with 'setarch --uname-2.6' to make it work (during install, at the command line, and in the init script as well).
Only Ubuntu Precise has a util-linux package that is current enough to support that option.
The same problem occurs on SLES11 SP2, btw. Only difference is that SLES provides a wrapper called 'uname26' which is symlinked to setarch and enables the '--uname-2.6' behaviour by default, so you can save yourself some typing.
Please note that both platforms (Ubuntu and SLES11 SP2) are not supported for OnCommand Core (last time I looked, anyway).
Regards, Oliver

Sorry, I was being vague in my description...
I tried to use Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, because that's somewhat close (release date wise) to RHEL 5.4 which was on the supported OS matrix.

try this:
sudo ./dfmsetup-3-8-linux.sh -o
the -o option is to bypass the RHEL check.
you may need to install the new license before upgrading. I don't remember.

Ok, I was a bit tired then I read the text, It is doomed to fail on Ubuntu I see now. I should just grab the package files from the temp dir.
Sorry for the noise...
