• The installation was simplified with a new Express installer option. The user

simply selects the number of devices to manage and the OMNM installer auto

sizes the environment. This eliminates additional installation prompts.

• The installation was improved to include:

- Automatic check for conflicting MySQL service and abort if found.

- Automatic modification for the required firewall ports for both Linux and Win-

dows

- Disk space required is auto- checked

- New server status console shows status of the Application, Web, and DB serv-

ers

• OMNM now checks for third party “MySQL” service during fresh install or

upgrade. If the MySQL service is already running, OMNM stops the service and

OMNM creates/starts its own MySQL service. (28817)

windows. There is no longer a zip file to extract.

• UPGRADE - The following notice was added to the installation when upgrading

from 6.2.x to 6.5

The upgrade procedure you are about to execute changes and migrates data from

the previous version of OpenManage Network Manager.

WARNING: This migration could take from 20 minutes up to several hours to

complete, and is based upon the size of your database.

If necessary, you may click Cancel now to safely abort the installation and re-

execute the installation/upgrade at a later time.

If you choose to continue with the upgrade, DO NOT Abort the database

configuration process or there is risk of db corruption.
