Installing ITO Agents on the Managed Nodes

General Installation Tips for Managed Nodes

• It is recommended that the depot server runs ftp so that the ITO

agent package can be easily transferred from the ITO management
server to the depot server.

• NetBasic, from the HiTecSoft company, must be installed on the

NetWare depot server. Note that the NetBasic components bundled
with NetWare 4.11 are not sufficient because some .NLMs (such as

NETMODUL.NLM

) which are required for installation are missing.

You do not need to install NetBasic if you already have at least the
runtime version of NetBasic installed on the depot server. Issue the
following command from the DOS workstation command prompt to
check for the correct version:

ndir f:\system\NetBasic.nlm /ver

where f: is the drive letter mapped to SYS:/

If the version you have is 6.00j – Build 4.127 or above you do not need
to install NetBasic.

You also need a Windows 95 or Windows NT version 4.0 system acting
as a NetWare client to perform the NetBasic installation.

3. Install NetBasic on the NetWare depot server.

a. NetBasic is located in the following directory on the ITO

management server:

/var/opt/OV/share/databases/OpC/mgd_node/vendor/\

novell/intel/nw/A.05.00/RPC_SUN_TCP/nbv6.exe

Alternatively, you can obtain NetBasic from the following address:

ftp://ovweb.external.hp.com/pub/NetBasic/nbv6.exe

NOTE

HP OpenView can change the location and/or name of the NetBasic
installation file without notice.

b. Run

NBV6.EXE

on the Windows 95 or Windows NT version 4.0,

and follow the instructions provided during the NetBasic
installation.

c. Select a NetWare server as the depot server to which all

.NLM

s are

copied.

d. Enter the runtime license number 300-3193-40100022; it is part of

the ITO agent for NetWare.
