Installing ITO Agents on the Managed Nodes

General Installation Tips for Managed Nodes

reboot. If the string is found you are notified that in order to
run the ITO agent for the NetWare server, TCP/IP must be
invoked.

If there is no such string the NetWare server may use the
configurator,

INETCFG.NLM

, to set network parameters.

Inspect the

AUTOEXEC.NCF

file for inclusion of the string

INITSYS

on a separate line to determine if this method is used.

If this is the case the file

SYS:ETC/NETINFO.CFG

is checked

for the string TCPIP. If the string is found you are warned that
in order to run ITO server, TCP/IP should be invoked and it is
suggested that you also run

INETCFG.NLM

.

If the presence of TCPIP cannot be determined the procedure
exits. The installation procedure does not try to invoke TCPIP
because of its complexity and the problems that this may
cause.

• Checks for TIRPC

The ITO management server requires the TIRPC module. If
the installation process does not find the module and it is not
located in

SYS:SYSTEM

, a warning is displayed. You can safely

ignore this warning message because the TIRPC module was
already copied when unzipping the package.

• Checks for

XCONSOLE

The active modules list and the

AUTOEXEC.NCF

and/or

NETINFO.CFG

are scanned for

XCONSOLE

.

XCONSOLE

requires

REMOTE.NLM

. If the strings

REMOTE

and/or

XCONSOLE

do not

exist in either of the two configuration files, the installation
procedure updates

AUTOEXEC.NCF

by inserting the

appropriate command(s) at the end of the file:

either:

load remote

or:

load xconsole

or both.

If the string

REMOTE

is not present, the installation procedure

prompts you for the remote console password.

On NetWare SFT III servers, the installation procedure cannot
check whether

REMOTE.NLM

is running. If it isn’t, you are not

prompted for the remote console password.

XCONSOLE.NLM

is
