Log in as a user with installation rights on the device.

Make sure you have downloaded the correct Inventory-Only module package to the target device. If you haven’t, see Section 12.1, Downloading Module from the ZENworks Server.

Create a temporary directory to unpack the installation files in. Do not use /tmp as the temporary installation directory; it interferes with the package installation. You can, however, create a separate directory under /tmp, such as /tmp/zaaio.

Move the downloaded package to the directory created in Step 3.

At a command prompt, change to the location of the Inventory-Only module package file.

Unpack the Inventory-Only module package by running the following command, using the Linux package as an example, from the directory in which the package is located:

tar -zxvf zaaio-10.3.0-linux-x86.tar.gz

Using the Linux package as an example, install the Inventory-Only module by running the following command from the directory in which the file is located:

./zenumia-install.sh -s <server>

where server is the DNS name or IP address of the ZENworks Server.

If the Inventory-Only agent has a non-default port, add the default port number after the DNS name or IP address of a ZENworks server, by running the following command:

./zenumia-install.sh -s <server> <default port number>

where server is the DNS name or IP address of a ZENworks server and the default port number is either 80 or 443.

The installation program requires no user interaction. When it is finished, the Inventory-Only module is started and the device is added to the Inventoried devices page in ZENworks Control Center (Devices tab > Inventoried tab > Workstations or Servers folder).

Delete the directory created in Step 3 and its contents.
