28.1 Accessing iManager

Accessing iManager varies based on the iManager version (server-based or workstation) and the platform on which iManager is running.

28.1.1 Accessing Server-based iManager

To access server-based iManager:

  1. Enter one of the following in the Address (URL) field of a supported Web browser.

    1. Because iManager 2.7 uses only Tomcat 5 for its Web server requirements, on platforms other than Novell Open Enterprise Server 2 (OES 2) you must specify the Tomcat port as part of the iManager URL. The default URL to start iManager 2.7 is as follows:

      • Secure URL: https://<server ip address>:8443/nps/iManager.html

      iManager 2.7 on the OES 2 platform, both Linux and NetWare, use the following default iManager URL:

      • Secure URL: https://<server ip address>/nps/iManager.html

      Although slightly different iManager URLs might work on some platforms, Novell recommends using these URLs for consistency.

  2. Log in by using your username, password, and the treename.

28.1.2 Accessing iManager Workstation

To access iManager Workstation:

  1. Browse to the iManager set up on your workstation.

  2. Execute imanager\bin\iManager.bat.

  3. Log in by using your username, password and treename.
