NOTE: Do not register the ZENworks Agent to a ZENworks Linux Management server
that has bundles assigned to this agent. If you do so, the ZENworks Agent ceases to work
after the bundles are installed. You can, however, choose to register the ZENworks Agent
to the server after the ZENworks Agent installation is complete.
8 After the installation is complete, confirm that the ZENworks Agent is running by using the
following command:
/etc/init.d/novell-zmd status
9 Confirm that the device has been added to the ZENworks Object Store by accessing the
ZENworks Control Center:
https://ZENworks_Primary_Server_Address
Replace ZENworks_Primary_Server_Address with the IP address or DNS name of the Primary
Server.
After you are in the Control Center, you can click the Devices tab, then click the Servers folder
or Workstation folder to view the device.
The ZENworks Agent installation removes all the existing services that are registered through
zmd on the managed device so that the managed devices with ZENworks 7.3 Linux
Management installed contacts the ZENworks Server for all its management needs.
If you've installed the ZENworks Agent on the Open Enterprise Server 1, continue with
Section 7.3, "Setting Up the Open Enterprise Server 1 after Installing ZENworks Linux
Management," on page
