Re: [ADSM-L] Upgrading a Linux client

For Linux clients, I've always had to remove (rpm -e) and install (rpm ivh or 
rpm -Uvh) the client rpms.  If upgrade now works without a remove first, I'd 
love to know at what client level that started.

what he said, or rpm -Uhv will maybe do (-U for upgrade, -i for install), h for 
nice hash marks as a progress bar and v for not Very quiet ;-)
