Installing the master and console on different devices

If you would like to install the console on a different device than the master, the installation process is divided in two different parts.

To install only the master

1. Launch the installation as described.
2. In step 7, clear the console option in the Component Selection window.
   
3. Proceed with the installation as described until step 23.
   After you click Finish , the installation process terminates and you must install the console separately.

Installing the console

The console installation process starts in the same way as the master--you have the following options:

• Install the console as a Java WebStart console (see option Console download page for different types of installation now).
• Install the console via the command line (see option Installing-the-console-via-the-command-line now).
• Install the console on another device with an active HTTP Server (proceed as described in the following paragraphs).

The installation of the console starts in the same way as the master installation; therefore, proceed as follows:

1. Go to the device on which the console is to be installed and proceed as described in the general installation process (steps 1 to 6).
2. At step 7, clear all options apart from Console in the Component Selection window.
3. Click Next. 
    The InstallShield Wizard Initialized dialog box appears with its Welcome screen again to install the console.
   
4. Click Next to continue.
    The InstallShield Wizard for the console installation dialog box appears on the screen.
5. Wait until the InstallShield Wizard is completely initialized, then click Next to install.
    The User Information dialog box allows you to define if the BMC Client Management master is installed for all user accounts of this device or only the account which is currently logged on.
6. Select the required radio button and click Next to continue.
   
   The next Console Installation window defines the way the console is installed. By default it is installed as an application in the indicated directory.
7. Click Change to install it in another directory.
   
8. Click Next to continue.
    The Ready to Install window appears the chosen installation directory and also allows you to create a shortcut to the console on the desktop.

9. Leave the other options as they are and click Install to launch the installation process.
   

   Note

   If you defined the master installation with SSL, you need to select the Use secure connection box here.

   When the console installation is completed, the InstallShield Wizard Completed dialog box appears to inform you if the console installation was successful.

10. Click Finish .
     A second InstallShield Wizard Completed dialog box appears to terminate the overall BMC Client Management installation process.
11. Click Finish to exit the wizard.
