Integrating Novell Customer Center With Zenworks Linux Management - Novell ZENWORKS LINUX MANAGEMENT 7.2 IR2 - ADMINISTRATION GUIDE 09-25-2008 Administration Manual

The zmd settings can be overridden at the device or folder level. If you add the same zmd
setting to a device or folder, but give it a different value, the new setting value overrides the
inherited zmd setting value. A setting on the device level overrides the same setting on the
folder level, which overrides the same setting on the system level.
To provide a setting at the device level, from the ZENworks Control Center, click the Devices
tab, navigate to and click the desired device, click the Settings tab, click ZMD Settings, then
click Override Settings. Click the Help icon for additional help.
To provide a setting at the folder level, from the ZENworks Control Center, click the Devices
tab, click the (Details) link next to the desired folder, click the Settings tab, then click ZMD
Settings, then click Override Settings. Click the Help icon for additional help.
If you add the same setting twice, the first instance of the setting is removed and the new
setting is applied to the device when it refreshes.
7.11 Integrating Novell Customer Center with
ZENworks Linux Management
Novell Customer Center is an online tool that makes it easier for you to manage your business and
technical interactions with Novell. From one location, you can do the following:
Review the status of supported Novell products, subscriptions, and services
Obtain support
Get Linux updates and patches
For more information about Novell Customer Center, see the
documentation (http://www.novell.com/documentation/ncc/index.html).
ZENworks Linux Management helps you to register all SLES 10 and SLED 10 managed devices
into Novell Customer Center at the same time. By integrating Novell Customer Center with the
ZENworks Linux Management server, you do not need to individually register each managed device
to Novell Customer Center.
To integrate the ZENworks Linux Management Server with Novell Customer Center:
1 Install ZENworks Linux Management Agent on all the managed devices. For more
information, see Setting Up Managed Devices
Installation Guide.
2 Register the ZENworks Linux Management Server to Novell Customer Center.
On SLES 10: Execute zlm-ncc-reg <IP_address_of_the
ZENworks_Linux_Management_server> <E-
Mail_Id_of_Novell_Customer_Center_Account>
<License_key_for_ZENworks_Linux_Management_or_the_product_
that_entitles_you_to_ZENworks Linux Management>
On Other Servers: Execute the zlm-ncc-reg command.
The ZENworks Linux Management Server acts as a Satellite server and registers all the
managed devices to Novell Customer Center.
3 Log in to the ZENworks Control Center, then click the Configuration tab.
4 In Management Zone Settings, click Novell Customer Center to display the Novell Customer
Center page.
