vmware vra oracle,Re: vRA Agent (Gugent) on RHEL/CentOS/OracleLinux ...

HF3 is supposed to fix this but we don't have it yet. I did the following to get the agent installed:

1. alternatives --set python /usr/bin/python3

2. Edits in the "preprare_vra_template.sh"

a) add --nodeps to the "rpm -i" statements. in my version these were the 3 lines

rpm -i $TEMP_DIR/$distro/$GuestAgentRPMName --nodeps

rpm -i $TEMP_DIR/$vRAInstallUnzipDir/$distro/$GuestAgentRPMName --nodeps

rpm -i $TEMP_DIR/$package_file_name --nodeps

b) add 2 lines for RHEL8/whatever in the if loop. grep for the error you get in the script for the location.

elif [[ $(cat /etc/*release | grep -i "release 8") ]]; then

distro="rhel$arch"

Good luck!
