The HP NetServer Agent and DMI software installation program is on the
HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM. To install the latest versions of the agents, you
can also download the installation software from the Internet at:
http://www.hp.com/toptools
After installing HP TopTools, you can check the versions of agents used by each
HP NetServer by viewing its HP TopTools Configuration page.
If you need to install HP NetServer Agents, or enable or disable specific agents on
a server, perform a custom installation on the specific server. (Don't perform a
reinstallation of agents on all your HP NetServers again from the console.) For
instructions for performing a custom installation, see Appendix A, "Customizing
HP NetServer Agents and Instant TopTools Software."
Installing on Windows NT or 2000 Servers
If this is the first time you've installed the HP NetServer Agents and Instant
TopTools software, follow the directions here. If you're performing a customized
installation, follow the directions in Appendix A, "Customizing HP NetServer
Agents and Instant TopTools Software."
To install the HP NetServer Agents and DMI software automatically on all the
Windows NT servers that you want to monitor, you must run the agent installation
program from a network computer running Windows. You can also install the

NOTE Be sure you have administrator privileges for the Microsoft
Windows servers you want to include under HP TopTools
management.
