3.3 Accessing the ZENworks Control Center
through Novell iManager
ZENworks Linux Management includes a Novell plug-in module (
.npm
) that you can use to access
the ZENworks Control Center from Novell iManager, which is a management console used by a
number of other Novell products.
To install the ZENworks Control Center plug-in for iManager:
1 Copy the plug-in (
zlm7link.npm
) from the Novell ZENworks 7.3 Linux Management CD to a
location on your iManager server.
The
zlm7link.npm
file is located in the
/ImanagerPlugin
directory.
2 Install and configure the plug-in module:
Š If you are using Novell iManager 2.6, follow the instructions in the Novell iManager 2.6
documentation (http://www.novell.com/documentation/imanager26/) .
Š
If you are using Novell iManager 2.7 or later, see TID 7003078 at Novell Support (http://
www.novell.com/support) .

3.4 Changing the Timeout Value for the
ZENworks Control Center
By default, the ZENworks Control Center has a 30-minute timeout value. If you leave the
ZENworks Control Center idle on your computer for more than 30 minutes, you are prompted to log
in again before continuing. You can increase or decrease the timeout value, or you can specify that
the ZENworks Control Center never times out.
To change the timeout value:
1 Open the
/var/opt/novell/zenworks/www/tomcat/base/webapps/zenworks/WEB-INF/
config.xml
file in a text editor.
2 Increase or decrease the timeout value, as needed.

config.xml
file.
