ZENworks Server Management uses ConsoleOne for administration of ZENworks objects in eDirectory. After installation, any workstation where you run ConsoleOne to manage ZENworks Server Management must meet the following minimum requirements:
Windows servers (2000/2003) can also be used as a management workstation if it has Novell Client 4.9 installed.
IMPORTANT: ZENworks Server Management does not support using a server's console to run an instance of ConsoleOne installed on that NetWare server. To use the server's installation of ConsoleOne, you must map a drive from a workstation to that server and run ConsoleOne from the workstation.
1 For ZENworks 6.5 SP1 and SP2, the Server Management snap-ins are not supported on Solaris servers.
In addition to ConsoleOne, you can use iManager to manage the Tiered Electronic Distribution objects used by Policy and Distribution Services. For plug-in installation instructions, see Web-Based Management for Policy and Distribution Services.
WARNING: Earlier versions of iManager cannot be used with ZENworks 6.5 Server Management.
Also, if you plan to upgrade incrementally, you need to maintain the older version of iManager that you are using to manage ZENworks for Servers 3.x in order to continue to manage those servers. Because you cannot have two different versions of iManager installed to the same machine, select a different machine for installing iManager 2.x.
To install iManager on a Windows machine: Insert the ZENworks 6.5 Companion 1 CD and on the main installation menu, click Companion Programs and Files > Novell iManager, which automatically executes the installation file from that CD.
IMPORTANT: For a Windows Server 2003 machine, iManager 2.0.2 or 2.5 requires eDirectory 8.7.3; however, eDirectory does not need to be installed on this Windows machine, it only needs to be available somewhere on the network for iManager to access.
