Obtaining and Installing ConsoleOne

We recommend that you use ConsoleOne® 1.3.5 on the ZENworks for Desktops Companion CD ZENworks 6 Companion 1 CD that ships with ZfD rather than a version of ConsoleOne shipping with NetWare®. If you are using the original version of ZfD 4 or Support Pack 1, you can use version 1.3.3 of ConsoleOne that ships on the ZENworks for Desktops 4 Companion CD.

WARNING:  If you have previously installed ConsoleOne on your server, check the version number. If your installed ConsoleOne is a newer version than the 1.3.5 version that ships on the ZENworks for Desktops Companion CD or ZENworks 6 Companion 1 CD, do not attempt to install the older version over the newer version.

From the ZENworks for Desktops Companion CD or the ZENworks 6 Companion 1 CD, you should browse to the consoleone directory and install ConsoleOne 1.3.5 on a network server. When you install, make sure that you specify the install path with a mapped drive letter rather than with a UNC path.

Although the best performance for administering ZfD with ConsoleOne is achieved at a Windows NT/2000 server where ConsoleOne and the Novell® ClientTM are installed, this section includes information about using ConsoleOne from other possible administrative locations.
