Well, I figured out ONE way to do it.... I edited /etc/yum.repos.d/dell-omsa-repository.repo. Under:
[dell-omsa-indep] I commented out: #mirrorlist=http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/mirrors.cgi?osnam e=el$releasever&basearch=$basearch&native=1&dellsyspluginver=$dellsysidp luginver and then hard-coded the $basearch variable like this: mirrorlist=http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/mirrors.cgi?osname =el$releasever&basearch=i386&native=1&dellsyspluginver=$dellsysidpluginv er Then I did the same in: [dell-omsa-specific] Commenting out: #mirrorlist=http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/mirrors.cgi?osnam e=el$releasever&basearch=$basearch&native=1 &sys_dev_id=$sys_dev_id&dellsysidpluginver=$dellsysidpluginver And replacing with: #mirrorlist=http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/mirrors.cgi?osnam e=el$releasever&basearch=i386&native=1 &sys_dev_id=$sys_dev_id&dellsysidpluginver=$dellsysidpluginver 32-bit version of OMSA 6.3 now running a PE 1850 running CentOS 5.5 x84_64! Now I can run check_openmanage through Nagios... which is all I really wanted anyway. ;) If there's a better way I should have done this, please let me know.

I'm trying to install OMSA 6.3 on CentOS 5.5 x64. I'm aware of the problems that OMSA 6.3 has with seeing controllers on the 64-bitOS, and I'm aware that the workaround is to install the 32-bit version. The problem is that I ran: wget -q -O - http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/bootstrap.cgi | bash And now yum only wants to install the 64-bit version of OMSA. What's the simplest way for me to install the 32-bit version with yum?
