Unable to remove OpenManage 6.1 from DELL PE2950 ?

[TonyJK]

When I attempt to install OpenManage 6.1 on a DELL PowerEdge 2950 Server running vSphere 4.0, it fails. Then I try to remove any instance of OpenManage on that ESX Host, it says that some packages cannot be removed BUT I am not able to find them by using rpm -qa.

The result is as follow and your advice is sought.

# rpm -qa | grep srvad*

# ./srvadmin-uninstall.sh

srvadmin-omilcore-6.1.0-426

srvadmin-hapi-6.1.0-426

srvadmin-ipmi-6.1.0-426.DUP

Are you sure you want to uninstall?
