4.4 Installing ConsoleOne 1.3.6e

Because you administer ZENworks Server Management primarily through ConsoleOne, you must have ConsoleOne 1.3.6 or later installed on at least one workstation or server before you install ZENworks Server Management. To determine your current version in ConsoleOne, click Help, then click About ConsoleOne.

To install ConsoleOne:

  1. Insert the Novell ZENworks 7 with Support Pack 1 Companion 1 CD and on the main installation menu, click Companion Programs and Files > Novell ConsoleOne.

    This runs the executable from the Companion 1 CD, displaying the WinZip Self-Extractor dialog box.

  2. Click Setup.

    After the files have been extracted, the installation program starts.

  3. Click Next to begin the installation.

  4. Review the License Agreement, then click Accept to continue.

  5. Browse to and select the location where you want to install ConsoleOne, then click Next twice.

    • On a NetWare server, you might choose sys:\public\mgmt

    • On a Windows server or workstation, you might choose c:\novell

    If you have an older version of ConsoleOne installed on the workstation that you use for a previous version of ZENworks Server Management, you can specify a different path. For example, change the \1.2 directory to \1.3 or \1.3.6.

  6. Select any languages in addition to English that you want to install, then click Next twice.

  7. After reviewing the summary of products to be installed, click Finish.

    Objects are analyzed and the installation is performed.

  8. When the installation completes, click Close.

  9. Repeat these steps for each machine where you want to have access to Server Management through ConsoleOne.

    IMPORTANT:ZENworks Server Management does not support running ConsoleOne in a NetWare server’s graphical console from the instance of ConsoleOne installed on that NetWare server. To use a NetWare server’s installation of ConsoleOne, you must map a drive from a workstation to that server and run ConsoleOne from the workstation. However, this is slower than running ConsoleOne directly from a workstation.
