Installing on Windows
Install the OpenManage Network Manager (OMNM) application on a single-server Window
system as follows.
1 Log in with administrative permissions on the Windows host where you want to install the
software.
2 Download the OMNM package to your local host in a temporary location.
3 Navigate to the win_install.exe file and then run it.
The Security Warning window is displayed.
4 Click Run.
A confirmation message is displayed.
5 Click Yes.
The installation wizard automatically launches. If the installer does not start automatically or
if you disabled autorun, navigate to the install directory and then run win_install.exe using a
file manager.
6 Read and navigate through the Introduction and Software Requirements information.
7 Accept the license agreement.
You must accept the license agreement to continue.
8 Select the Express Install or Custom Install type.
If you selected an
express installation , continue with step 9. If you selected a custom
installation
, continue with step 11.
9 Provide the following information if prompted:
• Number of managed devices
• Network Interface
If multiple network interfaces were detected on your local machine, select the network
address to be used by this software. If your Windows version does not support the
installer finding the host’s IP address, you are prompted for an IP address and Partition
Name for your installation.
After your selections, your system is scanned for database or port conflicts. If you receive any
errors, resolve them before continuing. For example, an existing MySQL service displays an
error or the following running processes could cause a port conflict:
• SNMP service (161)
Unlimited/
HA
OMNM can support an unlimited RTM (device count) license where there is no limit on
the number of managed devices in inventory. There are many factors to consider when sizing
with an unlimited license. High Availability (HA) deployment options are also available.
Environments managing over 5000 elements should consider an HA deployment. Custom
sizing can be provided if you are considering an HA license or the unlimited license. See
Verifying System Requirements on page 15for more information on sizing.
