IMPORTANT: During the installation process of the SUSE operating system, be sure to select
the Clone this system for autoyast check box to automatically generate the template control file
(/
root/autoinst.xml
). If you completed the installation without selecting this check box,
you must re-install the operating system and select this check box.
2 Configure the NFS server. For more information, see the SUSE documentation (http://
www.novell.com/documentation/suse.html) .
3 Download the
inst-source-utils-2007.5.15-0.3.noarch.rpm
file from inst-source-utils
(http://en.opensuse.org/Inst-source-utils) and install it. By default, the following files are
created under the
/usr/bin
directory:
create_directory.yast
create_md5sums
create_package_descr
createpatch
create_repo_for_patch.sh
create_update_source.sh
4
In the
create_update_source.sh
file, set the values as follows:
UPDATES=
”$SOURCE/zlm-updates”
NAME=
”zlm-updates”
where
“zlm-update”
is the base update source folder required for
the ZENworks Linux Management client file.
5 At the server console prompt, enter
‘create_update_source/ install_source_path /’
where
install_source_path
is the installation path for the operating system on the NFS
server.
For example, for the SLES10 SP1 operating system, you must enter the following command:
create_update_source/SLES10-SP1-x86_64
.
This creates a folder structure similar to the one shown below.
