Hello,
Has anyone out there successfully installed NetApp's "DataFabric
Manager" (DFM) on CentOS? If so, what version of DFM, CentOS, and
what architecture?
I am trying to install DFM 4.0.2, and have tried on both CentOS 4.8
i386 and CentOS 5.5 x86_64. I have edited my /etc/redhat-release file
to be equal to RHEL's, as the DFM installer immediately aborts if that
isn't right. However, I still have errors during the install:
Enter your NetApp DataFabric Manager license key [?,q]: <entered my key>

Looks like the problem is with SQLAnywhere, which appears to be a
Sybase product.
Anyone been down this road? So far NetApp is stonewalling me on CentOS support.
Thanks,
Matt
