This topic describes the procedure for applying the United Linux
Service Pack 3 updates to a metadata server.
Prerequisites
Apply the updates only after performing an initial installation of
SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 8.0 on the metadata server engine.
Tip: The process of applying the service pack updates might take a
while to complete.
Steps
- Insert the United Linux Service Pack CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
- Mount the CD-ROM:
mount /media/cdrom/
- Run the installation script:
/media/cdrom/install.sh
- Select Option 1 - Update System to Service Pack
3 level.
- After the updates have been applied, you are prompted
to quit. Press Enter.
- Unmount the CD-ROM drive.
umount /media/cdrom/
- Remove the CD-ROM from the drive.
- Reboot the engine and log in as root.
- Verify that the required kernel level is installed:
rpm –qa | grep –e k_smp –e kernel
The correct kernel level should be listed:# rpm -qa |grep -e k_smp -e kernel
k_smp-2.4.21-138
kernel-source-2.4.21-138
