Installation Tips for Novell NetWare Managed
Nodes
The process for installing the ITO agent software on Novell NetWare
managed nodes differs from the standard installation process used for
other platforms; the NetWare agent installation is semi-automated and
NetWare-server-based. It can be separated into the following phases:
ITO GUI phase
Adding the managed nodes to the ITO Node Bank
Transferring the ITO agent package to the managed nodes
NetWare Depot Server phase
Installing NetBasic on the NetWare depot server
Unzipping the ITO agent package
Installing the ITO agent software on the managed nodes
• Installing the ITO agent software – ping only
• Assigning and transferring templates to the managed nodes
Note that installing the ITO agent on Novell NetWare SFT III does not
differ from the standard agent installation on Novell NetWare.
Differences are noted in the following sections where they occur during
the installation.
Figure 2-3 on page 76 shows all installation steps made on the ITO
management server and on the Novell NetWare depot server. Note that
the numbers in the installation steps correspond to numbers of the
following instructions.
