Installation guide

48 ZENworks 11 Server Installation Guide
For Linux, mount the DVD, then run sh /media/cdrom/setup.sh . Using the sh command
resolves rights issues.
2. If you installed an external OEM Sybase server (see Section 3.3.4, “Installing an External
ZENworks Database,” on page 37), you must run the executable manually with the following
parameter in order for that database to be properly updated during this Primary Server
installation:
DVD_drive\setup.exe -o
3. Continue with Step 2 below.
NOTE: When installing ZENworks 11 SP1SP2 on Windows, Strawberry Perl is installed in
the root directory to meet the Perl runtime requirement for the ppkg_to_xml tool that should
run on both Windows and Linux. This tool is required to read the RPM package files to
extract the package metadata and create Linux bundles or Dependency bundles with these
packages.
Command Line Installation (Linux only)
1. On the installation server, insert the Novell ZENworks 11 installation DVD.
2. Mount the DVD.
3. To start a command line installation, do the following:
a. To a directory where all (including “others”) have read and execute access, either
mount the DVD or copy the DVD’s files.
This cannot be in
/root or any directory under it.
If you copy the DVD's files, make sure that all (including “others”) continue to have read
and execute access to the destination directories.
b. Run the following command:
sh /mount_location/setup.sh -e
For more information on installation arguments, see Appendix A, “Installation Executable
Arguments,” on page 77.
4. Continue with Step 2 below.
2 During installation, refer to the information in Table 4-1, “Installation Information,” on page 49 for
details on the installation data that you need to know.
If you are using the GUI installation, you can also click the Help button for similar information.
For the command line method, you can type
back and press Enter to return to a previous
installation option to make changes.
3 Do one of the following on the Windows device:
 If you selected to reboot automatically (you selected the Yes, restart the system option
during installation; see “Rebooting (or not)” on page 56), continue with Verifying Installation
after the booting process has completed and the services have started.
 If you selected to reboot manually (you selected the No, I will restart the system myself
option during installation; see “Rebooting (or not)” on page 56), you must wait for the
installation to complete and the services to start in order to verify it in Verifying Installation.
NOTE: On Windows or Linux, part of completing the installation process is for the database to be
updated and for the PRU to be downloaded and installed, both of which cause high CPU
utilization during their processes. This can cause the services to start up slowly, which can also
affect how long it takes for ZENworks Control Center to open.
