Installing Workstation Inventory in an Existing ZfD 3 Setup

If you are installing over an existing ZfD 3 setup, follow these guidelines:

• If you are planning to install the ZfD Inventory database maintained in Sybase on a server, ensure that you shut down the existing Sybase database before running the ZfD installation program.
• Prior to installing ZfD 3.2, ensure that you have made a reliable backup of the Inventory database. After installing ZfD 3.2, you should back up the Inventory database again.

  Before you back up the database, ensure that when you run the Inventory Services, the Inventory Upgrade Service completes ZfD 3.2 updates. To check this, run listser, to display an Upgrade Service Stopped message.

  When you want to restore the database backup, use the backup copy that was created after installing ZfD 3.2.

  The backup database that you created before installing ZfD 3.2 is not supported in ZfD 3.2.

• If you install ZfD 3.2 on an Inventory server and there is a database server connected to the Inventory server, ensure that you install ZfD 3.2 on the database server also. Otherwise, Inventory will not function properly.
• Before you run the installation program, follow the instructions to deactivate the scanner, see Installing Workstation Inventory to NetWare Servers or Installing Workstation Inventory to Windows NT/2000 Servers.
• If you choose an Upgrade install, ZfD 3.2 enhancements will not be installed on the server under the following conditions:
  • If the server does not have ZfD installed.
  • If you have already done a Full Install of ZfD 3.2, and are attempting to reinstall ZfD 3.2.
