Install HP array configuration utility on CentOS 5.8

[Kenyah]

Hi

I want to install hpacucli-9.40-12.0.x86_64.rpm on the system below and I'm enquiring whether the installation of the package will require restart of the server. Its a production server and don't want to restart it.

System model: HP Proliant ML350 G6
OS: CentOS 5.8 (Final) Kernel 2.6.18-308.1.1.e15 on an x86_64
Install cmd: rpm -i hpacucli-9.40-12.0.x86_64.rpm //after copying it to the server

Hi,

no reboot is needed to install hpacucli, by itself it doesn't load any modules or make any kernel modifications.

You can also use "yum localinstall" it's nice for softwares that dependencies.

There is also the http://downloads.linux.hp.com/SDR/repo/spp/ repository if you want to stay up to date.
