HP Application Recovery Manager software A.06.10 Installation and licensing guide (March 2008)

1. If you installed the Installation Server on a different system than the Cell Manager,
you must manually add (import) the system to the Application Recovery Manager
cell. Refer to “Importing an installation server to a cell ” on page 93.
NOTE:
When an Installation Server is imported, the file
/etc/opt/omni/server/cell/installation_servers on the
Cell Manager is updated to list the installed push-packets. This can be used
from the CLI to check the available push-packets. For this file to be kept up
to date, you should export and re-import an Installation Server whenever
push-packets are installed or deleted. This applies even if an Installation
Server is installed on the same system as the Cell Manager.
2. If you have any Windows systems in your Application Recovery Manager cell,
install the Installation Server for Windows. Refer to
“Installing an Installation Server for Windows” on page 52.
3. Distribute the software to clients. Refer to
“Installing Application Recovery Manager clients” on page 57.
