142 Installing Management Station Software
Typical and Custom Installations
The management station installer provides two setup options: Typical Setup
and Custom Setup.
The setup program runs the Prerequisite Checker and provides information
about your system’s hardware and software that might affect installation and
operation of features.
NOTE: When installing Management Station applications on systems running
Windows operating systems, additional Custom Install components selected during
a Typical Install are retained upon returning to the Typical Install option. To remove
these components, you must deselect them from the Custom Install dialog.
Perform the following steps for a typical installation of management station
software on your system:
1
Launch the management station installation.
2 Click Install, Modify, Repair or Remove Management Station and
click
Next .
3 Select the Typical Setup option.
If the prerequisites are met, the DRAC Tools and BMC Utilities are installed
by default. The Active Directory Snap-in Utility and IT Assistant are not
selected by default and can be installed using the custom setup option.
For more information about how to perform a Typical Setup, see the
Dell OpenManage Software Quick Installation Guide.
Custom Installation
The custom installation path enables you to choose specific software features
to install.
This section illustrates the Custom Setup option using an install and upgrade
of BMC Utilities as an example. You can also install other management
station software using the Custom Setup option.
NOTE: You can install management station and managed system services in the
same or different directories. You can select the directory for installation.
