There are three methods for upgrading the ZENworks 6.5 Policy-Enabled Server Management components to version 7:
GUI wizard: For NetWare and Windows servers, various menu options in the installation program run from the Novell ZENworks 7 Server Management with Support Pack 1 Program CD access wizards for upgrading each of the Server Management components: Policy and Distribution Services, Server Inventory, Remote Management, and Management and Monitoring Services.
Script: For the Policy and Distribution Services component only, upgrading Linux and Solaris servers to ZENworks 7 with SP1 can be done using a script included on the Novell ZENworks 7 Server Management with Support Pack 1 Program CD.
Server Software Package: You can use the .cpk files available on the Novell ZENworks 7 with Support Pack 1 Compaion 3 CD to upgrade the Policy-Enabled Server Management components for the each of the supported operating systems. This method simply requires creation of Software Package Distributions to be sent to the Subscriber servers that you want to upgrade.
For Server Inventory, only the Inventory Agent can be upgraded using a Server Software Package.
You cannot upgrade Management and Monitoring Services using a Server Software Package.
