29.3 Using GroupWise 8 Tuner

GroupWise 8 Tuner is an application that allows you to customize your MSI install. The Tuner application creates a transform file called groupwise.mst, which you can specify to use when performing an MSI install with ZENworks. You must have write access to the software distribution directory to use the GroupWise 8 Tuner application.

NOTE:If you install the GroupWise client using a Tuner file to a protected area, such as the C:\Program Files directory, the installation fails if you try to install using a non-Administrator user. You must install the GroupWise client to an unprotected area such as, C:\Novell\GroupWise if you are using a non-Administrator user.
