Welcome to the Novell Consulting Installation Framework (NCIF). By enhancing SUSE’s automatic installation method AutoYaST and combining it with Novell ZENworks Configuration Management (ZCM) we were able to develop a way to easily implement standardized installation, configuration and update of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) as well as of Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES).
This AppNote describes how to implement the AutoYasT part of the solution in your environment.

Ever wonder if you can move an NSS disk from an old OES server to a new one and save the Trustee? Here’s the answer, from Massimo Rosen.
Shawn Iverson responded to our OES Open Call with this nice piece about migration. His meditative approach underscores the importance of personal tranquility when approaching delicate IT procedures. Put down that Red Bull, clear your mind, and let Shawn guide you to migration nirvana. [Which Wikipedia defines as “the imperturbable stillness of mind after the fires of desire, aversion, and delusion have been finally extinguished.” Please let us know when you get there.]
In 1971, the first ever email was sent. Just forty-one years later, email is the industry standard for corporate communication, with the average corporate user sending and receiving 112 emails per day. With this communication tool so critical to any business’s bottom line, the list of valid reasons to disrupt it are few and far between. Enterprises considering migrating from Novell GroupWise to Microsoft Exchange should consider what it means in terms of costs and business disruption. It’s not just about the hardware and licensing, IT needs to consider the IT opportunity cost as well as overall user productivity.
Deciding how to upgrade your aging ZCM hardware or the best method to move the server from Linux to Windows can be complicated. So let me try to make it easier for you, but first please do some pushups or jumping jacks. I want your mind to be sharp and full of oxygen.
One of the more tricky hurdles our team had to overcome in our migration from Windows XP to Windows 7 in a ZENworks environment was to figure out how we were going to get ConsoleOne working on our Windows 7 workstations.
When doing the upgrade you may get an error message saying that the prerequisites have not been met because there isn’t enough free space on the appliance to accommodate the migration of 10.3.1 Appliance Data. Here’s a tip from paulpf that should help.
When the ZENworks migration tools just won’t do.
When we decided to migrate from ZENworks 7 to ZCM we took a look at the ZCM migration tools and while good, wouldn’t work for us. We wanted to do a direct move from (the majority of applications being) distribution script based, and file server holding installation files, to the content repository model available in ZCM. So how did we do it without mass reinstallations of applications?
The iPrint Driver Copy script copies printer drivers from a NetWare Broker (or multiple Brokers) to a Linux Driver Store.
