scriptlet failed, exit status 127 + RPM error

RPM error "scriptlet failed, exit status 127"

Sometime while patching the server, we may get message to delete some patches which create conflict.

And while deleting those conflicting rpms we get error something like this:

E

[root@cloud home]# rpm -e --nodeps ILMT-TAD4D-agent.i386-cs-cam.noarch

/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.XIuSM4[137]: /var/itlm/utilities/cit/wcitinst: not found [No such file or directory]

error: %preun(ILMT-TAD4D-agent-7.5-1.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 127

We are erasing the rpms using -e option and not removing the rpm dependency   (Reason : The dependencies could be part of other rpms and by removing it we may encounter problem for other rpms). 
--nodeps Do not verify dependencies

  

 Solution:

 Delete the rpm using --noscripts option. The --noscripts option tells the rpm command not to run any uninstallation scripts

--noscripts  = Do not execute verification script

[root@cloud home]# rpm -e --nodeps  --noscripts ILMT-TAD4D-agent.i386

Mounting/Unmounting NFS File System +HPUX

Mounting/Unmounting NFS File System +HPUX

########################################

E.g.: source server: hpuxsap3; Destination Server: hpuxsap4

Mount point which needs to be shared: /sapmnt/hpux

Mounting of NFS File System

On source server:

1.      #share –F nfs -o rw=@

i.e share –F nfs –o rw=@hpuxsap4 /sapmnt/hpux

2.      #share : will show the local resource (mount points) available for NFS mounting

Or  #showmount –e < will list all shared file systems.>

On Destination server:

1.      #mkdir

i.e #mkdir  /sapmnt/hpux

2.      #mount :

i.e #mount hpuxsap3: /sapmnt/hpux /sapmnt/hpux

Note: #cat /etc/dfs/dfstab

Unmounting of NFS File System

Destination Server:

# umount

 i.e # umount /sapmnt/hpux

  if getting error

#  umount /mountpoint   

    e.g # umount /sapmnt/hpux

   umount: cannot unmount /dev/disk/disk23 : Device busy

   umount: return error 1.

 Run :

# fuser -kuc /mountpoint

e.g # fuser -kuc /sapmnt/hpux

and then:

# umount /sapmnt/hpux

Source Server:

# unshare /sapmnt/hpux  

#unshareall
