ConsoleOne 1.3


Installing the NICI Client

Some of the ConsoleOneTM snap-ins for NetWare 6 require the NICI client. To use those snap-ins, you must install NICI on every workstation where you will use ConsoleOne.

IMPORTANT:  Two versions of NICI are provided for Windows* platforms: 1.5.7 and 2.0.2. We recommend that you install both versions.

NICI 1.5.7 is implemented as a kernel driver, while NICI 2.0.2 is implemented as a shared DLL. Applications using NICI 1.5.7 will not work if only NICI 2.0.2 is installed. Likewise, new applications will require at least NICI version 2.0.2. Both NICI versions can be installed on the same Windows workstations, providing support for all applications.

A Client CD containing the NICI client for Microsoft* Windows operating systems is included with NetWare 6. NICI clients for Solaris* and Linux* can be found on the Novell software download page.

To install the NICI client from the Client CD, insert the CD. An autorun application begins. Select the NICI client from the list.


Running ConsoleOne on the NetWare Server Console

For best performance, download ConsoleOne 1.3.3 from the Novell software download page, then install ConsoleOne and the snap-ins on a workstation.


Losing Connection to ConsoleOne after Cluster

After a node in the cluster dies, you should log out and then log back in to see the Cluster View in ConsoleOne.


ConsoleOne Is Not Refreshing Properly

With 3D mouse pointer software installed on a machine running ConsoleOne, the screen might appear to not refresh properly.

To solve this problem, remove the 3D mouse pointers.

For more information on this issue, refer to Solution #10058840.


ConsoleOne Does Not See the Tree

In a pure IP environment, ConsoleOne does not see the eDirectoryTM tree of the server that ConsoleOne is running on.

To fix this, make the following changes in the AUTOEXEC.NCF file:

  1. Add the statement LOAD SCMD.NLM after the LOAD and BIND statements for TCPIP.
  2. Add IPX to the serverID.
  3. Then restart the server.
    4.

Support for the Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set

This release of ConsoleOne does not support the Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set (HKSCS). We are currently working on a patch to allow HKSCS support in future releases of ConsoleOne.


ConsoleOne Will Not Load on NetWare Server After Installing GroupWise 6 SP1

You might receive the following error when you start ConsoleOne on a NetWare server after installing GroupWise 6 SP1 and the GroupWise snap-ins on the server:

ERROR: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/novell/gw/util/Resource

To resolve this error, remove the following GroupWise snap-ins directory from the server:

SYS:PUBLIC\MGMT\CONSOLEONE\1.2\SNAPINS\GROUPWISE

After you remove this directory, you will no longer be able to map a drive to the server and run ConsoleOne with the GroupWise snap-in. You will have to install ConsoleOne and the GroupWise snap-ins on a workstation in order to administer GroupWise. You will, however, be able to run ConsoleOne without the GroupWise snap-in from the server.
