Hi Ajdin,

Installation:

Download steps:
Download the rpm package to a directory on your hard drive and change the directory accordingly.

To verify the digital signature:
Verify the RPM signature using the following steps:
Download the HPE GPG 2048-bit Public Key (hpePublicKey2048_key1.pub), which is available from the HPE SDR web site: https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/keys.html
Import the public key while logged in as root by running the following command:
   # rpm --import /path_to_the_key/file_name_of_the_key
   example # rpm --import /path_to_the_key/26C2B797.pub
Verify the RPM:
Use the rpm --checksig command to validate and verify the digital signature of the signed file. The output from the command indicates the validity of the signature:
   # rpm --checksig filename_of_the_rpm
   example result #  rpm --checksig <File name>.rpm
  <File name>.rpm: digests signatures OK
If your file does not pass verification or you do not have the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company public key installed, you may see an error:
   # rpm --checksig sample_file.rpm
   sample_file.rpm: (SHA1) DSA sha1 md5 (GPG) NOT OK (MISSING KEYS: key#s)
In this case then do not install the rpm. This means the file has been modified in some way since being released from Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company

To verify the SHA256 hash value, do the following steps:

1. Use Linux hash tool to calculate the SHA256 hash value for filename.rpm
   • $ sha256sum hpsmh-7.6.7-1.x86_64.rpm
     • <f2b119ec206ed5d0588834af14bfaf568c5df30a6a9be0ca3bbd1179bed12a31>  hpsmh-7.6.7-1.x86_64.rpm
2. Compare the calculated value with the SHA256 value displayed in the Installation Instruction tab of the HPE Support Center download page.
   • If the values match, then the integrity of the downloaded file has been verified.
   • If the values do not match, do not deploy the file.
   • Download the file a second time and compare the new hash value. 
   • If the hash values do not match, do not deploy the file and contact HPE Technical Support

Installation steps here:

1. Installation: rpm -ivh hpsmh-< version >.x86_64.rpm
2. Upgrade (from lower version to higher version): rpm -Uvh hpsmh-<version>.x86_64.rpm>
3. Reinstallation (of same version): rpm -Uvh hpsmh-<version>.x86_64.rpm
4. Downgrade (from higher version to lower version): User needs to uninstall the higher version (rpm –e hpsmh-<version>) and then install the lower version (rpm -ivh hpsmh-<version>.x86_64.rpm).
