ConsoleOne® is a Java*-based tool for managing your network and its resources. By default, ConsoleOne lets you manage:
eDirectory™ objects, schema, partitions, replicas, and rights
NetWare file system resources
If you install other Novell products, additional functionality might be added to ConsoleOne. For example, if you install Novell eDirectory, the capability to configure the LDAP interface to eDirectory is snapped in to ConsoleOne automatically.
ConsoleOne is designed like a file manager utility: in the left window pane you browse containers, and in the right window pane you work with the resources in those containers.
To start ConsoleOne on a NetWare server, do either of the following:
On the servertop (server GUI), click Novell > ConsoleOne.
At the system console prompt, type C1START.
To start ConsoleOne on a Windows workstation:
Map a drive to the sys: volume of a NetWare server.
On the mapped drive, go to public\mgmt\consoleone\1.2\bin, and then run consoleone.exe.
If ConsoleOne is installed locally on the Windows computer, simply double-click the ConsoleOne icon on the desktop.
If ConsoleOne is installed remotely on a NetWare or Windows server and you don't have a shortcut to that installation, do the following:
In Windows Explorer, find the mapped or shared drive that represents the server volume where ConsoleOne is installed and then browse to the folder where ConsoleOne is installed.
By default, this is:
IMPORTANT:You must browse for ConsoleOne on a drive that is mapped to a letter, not a UNC path.
In the bin subfolder, double-click consoleone.exe.
(Optional) For future use, create a shortcut on your desktop to the remote consoleone.exe file.
To start ConsoleOne on Linux* or Solaris*:
At the system prompt of a local session or an X terminal (remote) session, enter the following command:
/usr/ConsoleOne/bin/ConsoleOne
