RPM common Commands and RPM parameters introduction

RPM is the abbreviation for Redhatpackagemanager, a software package installation and management program developed by Redhat, similar to the uninstaller on the Windows platform. With RPM, users can install and manage applications and system tools on Linux themselves. RPM allows the user to install the package directly in binary mode, and can query the user whether the library file is already installed, and when the program is removed with RPM, it intelligently asks the user if they want to delete the program. If you use RPM to upgrade the software, RPM retains the original configuration file so that the user does not have to reconfigure the new software. RPM maintains a database that contains all the information about the package, which allows the user to query the package. RPM is designed for Linux, but it has been shifted to SunOS, Solaris, AIX, IRIX and other Unix systems. RPM complies with the GPL, and users are free to use and disseminate rpm under the GPL.

RPM has 10 basic modes: They are installed, queried, verified, deleted, and so on.
Installation mode: Rpm–i

Query mode: RPM–Q

Validation mode: Rpm–v or –verify

Delete mode: Rpm–e

1. Install a Package

# RPM-IVH

2. Upgrade a Package

# RPM-UVH

3. Remove a Package

# RPM-E

4. Installation Parameters

--force Force installation Even if overwriting files belonging to other packages

--nodeps if the RPM package is installed depending on other packages, it is forced to install even if the other packages are not loaded.

5. Query whether a package is installed

# Rpm-q < RPM package name>

6. Get information about the packages that are installed

# Rpm-qi < RPM package name>

7. List what files are in the package

8. List which RPM package a file on the server belongs to

#rpm-QF

9. Can synthesize several parameters to a
