Instructions on how to use this SoftPAQ to install Agents onto a server
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

	This file contains the instructions on how to install the Compaq 
Server Agents for NetWare onto a NetWare server.  The SoftPAQ 
process has left a self-extracting executable file (NWSV450.EXE)and this 
file (Sp10654.txt) in a subdirectory.  The goal will be for the user to 
run the self-extracting executable on a client machine and install to any 
target server(s) which require the updated agents.  The target server will 
temporarily contain a subdirectory which will be used to house the files used 
by the Compaq Management Agent Installation NLM (CPQAGIN.NLM).  The agent
installation NLM will be run and will copy the files to the proper places
and will configure the agents.  The final step will be to delete the
temporary subdirectory on the target server.

     The following steps provide more detailed information.


Step 1:  Run the NWSV450.EXE file to copy files to the Target Server.

	Copy this SP10654.TXT and the NWSV450.EXE files to a client machine
which has access to the network which contains the target NetWare server
and then map a drive to the server.  Then run the NWSV450.EXE file on that
client machine so it installs the necessary files to the target server. 
Note: When you run the NWSV450.EXE file, it will contain the default path
which should be used to land the files on the server, but you will need
to provide the proper drive letter of the target server.


Step 2: Run the installation NLM (CPQAGIN.NLM) on the target server.

	Walk over to the target server and run the Compaq Management
Agent Installation NLM in order to install and configure the new Agents.
To do this, type:
      LOAD SYS:\AGENTS\NETWARE\ENG\COMPAQ\CQMGSERV\CPQAGIN
and hit Enter.

	Next select the option to 'Copy New NetWare Agents to SYS:SYSTEM".
This will copy the files from the temporary subdirectory to the proper
locations.  Once the file copies are complete, follow the instructions
to configure the agents. Once the installation steps are complete, CPQAGIN 
will automatically start the agents.  


Step 3:  Verify that the Agents work.

	Use Compaq Insight Manager to verify that the target server can be
seen and that the agents are providing data.


Step 4:  Delete the temporary subdirectory on the target server.

	If desired, the temporary directory on the target server which was used 
to stage the files can be deleted.  Go to a client machine and delete the
\AGENTS folder from the target server.
