Environment

Novell ZENworks Patch Management 6.3 - ZPM6.3 Agent

Situation

The online help for installing the unix/Netware agent 6.3450 specifies that the agent should be extracted to /root/UnixUpdateAgent - this will not work

Resolution

The correct instructions are:
  1. Copy UnixUpdateAgent.tar to the root of SYS:
  2. Extract the file by typing the following at the server console: tar -xvf UnixUpdateAgent.tar
  3. Perform the install by typing the following at the server console: sys:install.ncf (other options can be found in readme.txt which will have been extracted to the root of SYS: in step 2)
