On Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the following libraries must be installed before installing the Remote cell.
The preferred method to add any missing libraries is to use the yum command to fetch the necessary library packages from the RHN (Red Hat Network) repository via the internet. To use this method, a Red Hat subscription is needed. Register the system by clicking System->Administration->Red Hat Subscription Manager in the menu on the server itself. After registering the system, you can use "yum install" to download and install the required libraries from the RHN.
Library | Command to install the library on Red Hat Enterprise Linux | Command to install the library on SUSE Linux |
---|---|---|
libXtst (32-bit) libXtst (64-bit) | yum install libXtst.i686 libXtst.x86_64 libXtst-1.0.1-3.1 libX11-devel-1.0.3-11.el5 | N/A |
glibc (32-bit) glibc (64-bit) |
glibc-2.12.x86_64 glibc-2.12-1.107.el6.i686 glibc-devel-2.5-65 | zypper install glibc-32bit glibc |
libstdc++ (32-bit) libstdc++ (64-bit) | yum install libstdc++.i686 libstdc++.x86_64 | zypper install libstdc++-32bit libstdc++ |

libgtk-x11-2 (32-bit) | yum install libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 | N/A |
libfreebl3.so | yum install libfreebl3.so | N/A |
Note
- To avoid errors while installing 32-bit libraries, BMC recommends that you install 32-bit libraries together with the 64-bit libraries.
- After installing the libraries, run
yum check
to ensure that the libraries are not corrupt.
