CA Privileged Access Manager Server Control (CA Privileged Identity Manager) R12.9 Sp1 : Tech Tip by Reatesh Sanghi, Principal Support Engineer, for Date: 29/12/2015
While preparing a Linux Server for installing Privileged Access Manager Server, we are required to install a lot of packages as documented. You can choose to install each of these individually or choose to copy the below script on your RHEL server and execute this script for installing all the required packages and also be able to identify if any of the packages are not installed. The cause for some of the packages not being installed could be that you have a new version of the package which differs from the list of package names from the documentation or that the YUM repository needs to be updated.
