On Red Hat Enterprise Linux, it is possible to upgrade an existing installation with the
rpm -U
flag or
install a new Directory Server using the RPM package with the
rpm -i
flag.
NOTE
RPMs for Directory Server 7.1 SP7 are also available to Red Hat Enterprise Linux
users by running
up2date
using an account with entitlements for the Red Hat Direct-
ory Server 7.1 SP7 release.
To upgrade Red Hat Directory Server 7.1 (or any previous 7.1 service pack) on a Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 3 or 4 system:
1. Log in as
root
.
2. Run
rpm
to upgrade the Directory Server using the package appropriate for your version of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux.
• For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3:
rpm -U redhat-ds-7.1SP7-11.RHEL3.i386.rpm
