Although the ConsoleOne installation program lets you install ConsoleOne files to a local hard drive, and though minor performance enhancements can be achieved by doing so, such an installation will not include the ZfD snap-ins.
NOTE: The Windows workstation where you run ConsoleOne must also have the Novell Client installed.
Instead of using the ConsoleOne installation program to get a local installation, we recommend the following:
Install ConsoleOne and ZfD Server software to the server, including all of the components you plan to use.
From the public\mgmt\consoleone directory on the server, copy the 1.2 folder > paste it to a clean area on your local drive.
Create a shortcut on your desktop to the 1.2\bin\consoleone.exe file in your local installation.
Another alternative is to use snAppShotTM to create your own application object (.aot file) for ConsoleOne snap-ins or to use the pre-packaged ConsoleOne Application object (created during ZfD Server installation) to distribute the ConsoleOne snap-ins to other workstations.
You can configure the pre-packaged Application object by running the c1update.exe program from sys\public\zenworks on the server where you have installed ZfD Server software. This utility helps you configure the object with the path to ConsoleOne on the server (usually sys\public\mgmt\consoleone\1.2). Configuring with this path ensures that all of ConsoleOne and the ZfD snap-ins will be available. The program also lets you configure a path for local installation of ConsoleOne (usually c:\novell\consoleone\1.2).
When the update is executed, it prepares the ConsoleOne Update object for association and distribution to a workstation or a user.
