Installing Liebert Multilink onto Console

We just got a new Liebert UPS. I'm trying to install their automated shutdown software in the administration console so it can shutdown before the power fails. This is much prefered over shuting down each guest individually. From the error below it appears that the console does not have libXext.so.6 installed is there something I can do to install it?

My solution was to install it to a CentOS VM of a similar vintage and copy over the installed bits needed to handle the automated shutdown.
