Select Yes if you want the AlliedView NMS as a service. Otherwise select No. Click Next. The next window
will appear.

8.

The next screen will confirm the successful installation of the AlliedView NMS. Complete the process as fol-
lows:

1.

Click Next. The next window will appear.

2.

The next window will ask you whether you want to restart your computer now or at a later time. If you
want to restart now, select Yes. Otherwise, select No.

Note:

If you selected Yes, your computer will restart when you click Finish. Before restarting your
computer, if you have any Windows applications open other than the AlliedView NMS
Installation Wizard, close them now. If you selected No, this is not necessary as a restart will
not occur.

3.

Click Finish to complete the process.

4.

If you selected Yes to restart in the previous window, when your computer restarts, you will get the
AlliedView NMS Client logon window. If you want to log in, enter root as the username and public as
the password, and then click Connect. Otherwise, click Cancel to terminate the login process.

Note:

The InstallShield adds the NMS Client startup program to your Windows Startup menu, which
means the client will start automatically when a user logs into Windows.

5.

If you do not want the client to start automatically, remove AlliedView NMS Client from your Windows
Startup menu by right-clicking on it, and then selecting Delete from the pop-up menu.

You have completed the installation process. To start the AlliedView NMS, refer to Chapter

2.3 Installing on a Solaris Platform

To install the AlliedView NMS on a Solaris platform, follow these steps:

1.

On the machine on which the AlliedView NMS is to be installed, log in as root or as a user with root privi-
leges.

2.

Insert the installation Solaris CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.

3.

Start the Wizard manually by executing the AlliedViewNMS_x_x_Sol.bin file.

Note:

The Solaris Installer requires 1.5 GB of temporary disk space to properly complete the
installation process. It is recommended the

/tmp

directory is used for this purpose. Also, for

best performance first copy the Installer (

AlliedViewNMS_x_x_Sol.bin

) to a hard drive

location. For example:

% AlliedViewNMS_9_0_Sol.bin -is:tempdir /tmp -is:log /tmp/nmslog

4.

Once the Installation Wizard starts, follow the instructions provided by the Installation Wizard. The instruc-
tions are identical to those provided during the installation on the Windows platform. For specific informa-
tion on following the Wizard instructions, refer to Chapter
