Download and install HKMS RPM File
Before you can connect the key server to the Management Server, you must install the hybrid key management (HKMS) software.
- Select Administration > System Settings.
- Select Downloads from the menu.
- Click the download icon for HKMS.
- Save the RPM file.
- Open the RPM file to begin the installation.
-
Enter the following command:
Sudo yum install hkms-<version>.x86_64.rpm.
The system responds:
[root@pherur-centos ~]# yum install hkms-1.5.0-54.x86_64.rpm Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Examining hkms-1.5.0-54.x86_64.rpm: hkms-1.5.0-54.x86_64 Marking hkms-1.5.0-54.x86_64.rpm to be installed Resolving Dependencies There are unfinished transactions remaining. You might consider running yum-complete-transaction, or "yum-complete-transaction --cleanup-only" and "yum history redo last", first to finish them. If those don't work you'll have to try removing/installing packages by hand (maybe package-cleanup can help). The program yum-complete-transaction is found in the yum-utils package. --> Running transaction check --> Package hkms.x86_64 0:1.5.0-54 will be installed --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ===================================================================== Package Arch Version Repository Size ===================================================================== Installing: hkms x86_64 1.5.0-54 /hkms-1.5.0-54.x86_64 173 M Transaction Summary ===================================================================== Install 1 Package Total size: 173 M Installed size: 173 M Is this ok [y/d/N]:
