You must download the Unified Manager .zip file from the NetApp Support Site to install Unified Manager.

Before you begin

You must have login credentials for the NetApp Support Site.

You download the Unified Manager installation package for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux system.

Steps

  1. Log in to the NetApp Support Site, and navigate to the Download page for Unified Manager:

    NetApp Support Site

  2. Select the required version of Unified Manager and accept the end-users license agreement (EULA).

  3. Download the Unified Manager installer file for Linux, and save the .zip file to a directory on the target system.

    Note

    • Ensure that you download the correct version of the installer file for your Red Hat Enterprise Linux system. Based on whether you have Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 or 9 installed, ensure that you download the appropriate version of the Unified Manager .zip file.

    • NetApp recommends that you download the code signing certificate (.pem) and digital signature (.sig) along with the .zip file.

  4. Verify the checksum for integrity of the downloaded software.

  5. If you have downloaded the code signing certificate and digital signature, you can verify the integrity of the installer file. You can use the following commands to verify the integrity of the installer file:

    • This command creates a file with the public key from the code signing certificate:

      openssl x509 -pubkey -noout -in AIQUM-RHEL-CLIENT-INTER-ROOT.pem > <public_key_file_name>

      • Where AIQUM-RHEL-CLIENT-INTER-ROOT.pem is the file that contains the code signing certificate.

    • This command verifies the signature on the installer file:

      openssl dgst -sha256 -verify <public_key_file_name> -signature <signature_file_name> ActiveIQUnifiedManager-<version>.zip

      The message similar to Verified Ok confirms that the installer file is safe to use.
