Press CTRL+C to exit nsrwatch command line tool.

You can see that Networker server is up and running. Evaluation license will expire in 30 days.

install Networker Management Console

run terminal

opensuse@nwsrv:~> su -
nwsrv:/home/opensuse/Download/linux_x86 # rpm -ivh lgtonmc-7.6.0-1.i686.rpm

NOTE: To complete configuration execute the following script as root:
      /opt/lgtonmc/bin/nmc_config

nwsrv:/home/opensuse/Download/linux_x86 # kwrite /opt/lgtonmc/bin/nmc_config

OpenSUSE uses a later version of rpm compared to SLES. Therefore the nmc_config script will fail because of a non supported rpm option. One has to edit the script manually as workaround.

case "$ARCH" in
    Linux )
#           base=`rpm -q --qf "%{INSTALLPREFIX}\n" lgtonmc 2> /dev/null`
            base="/opt/lgtonmc"
            ;;

Now complete the installation of NMC. Always press return for NMC install options to get default values…

nwsrv:/home/opensuse/Download/linux_x86 # cd /opt/lgtonmc/
nwsrv:/opt/lgtonmc # /opt/lgtonmc/bin/nmc_config
