Hi,
I have couple of Rhel 5 servers where Open SSL is in 0.9.8zh version therefore I get error when installing agent
SCOM 2016
Tried with :
scx-1.6.2-343.rhel.5.x64.sh
scx-1.6.2-343.universalr.1.x64.sh
This system's OpenSSL version: 0.9.8zh
Supported versions: 1.0.*
Do you know if it is possible to install older agent and if so where could I find it ?

Yes, an older version of the agent should work (but wouldn't be officially supported).
You can get the rpm file by downloading whatever version of the UniversalR MP .mpb file you need on systemcenter.wiki (https://systemcenter.wiki/?Get-ManagementPack=Microsoft.Linux.UniversalR.1&Version=7.5.1005.0 for example ), and then unpack it using https://silect.com/mpbutil-a-free-utility-for-working-with-mpb-files/

Hi,
Yes, opnssl 1.0.0-4 or above is required for RHEL 5.

It seems to be a better choice to upgrade openssl version to 1.0.x, otther than finding a lower version agent. We may try to compile it manually and see if it works. (sudo yum install gcc first)

Hi,
Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately I can't upgrade open ssl there as this is appliance and I wouldn't like to change other things than just install SCOM agent on it.
II thought that maybe SCOM 2012R2 Unix agent would work
