Console Software
The new I/Ports use the following console applications:
• Grid Center 4.11
• Neoware ezRemote Manager
Grid Center is used in its traditional fashion to monitor and manage I/Ports. The
ezRemote Manager application is used to push system updates and snapins for the
new I/Ports.
Grid Center
To provide full support for the new I/Ports, you need to run the Grid Center Linux
Update Installer on your Grid Center Console system. This installer places the
required files for the Linux I/Port Client on the Grid Center Console. You must have
Grid Center 4.1 or higher installed to use this update.
