Configuring NerveCenter Remotely

You can use the utility ImportUtil.exe to copy Server configuration information to a NerveCenter Server.

If you have not already done so, you'll need to install NerveCenter either on the SMS host machine or on a system that is accessible to and shareable with the SMS host. The files you will use in the following procedure are set up during the installation process.

 
  To create an SMS package on the SMS host that can be used to perform remote database installations, follow these steps:

1. Create a new directory in the NerveCenter directory structure on your SMS host to contain all files required for this process. For example, you could create a directory called ImpUtil under Sms.
2. Copy the following files to your new directory:

   From the NerveCenter Bin directory:

   • ImportUtil.exe

     From the NerveCenter Sms directory:

   • ImpUtil.ini
   • ImpUtil.pdf

     These files are in directories set up as a result of the NerveCenter installation. They are not accessible from the NerveCenter CD-ROM.

3. Edit ImpUtil.ini.

   ImpUtil.ini is the name of the file containing the Server configuration information and definitions. See Managing NerveCenter for more details.

4. Use the SMS Administrator to create a new package and to import the ImpUtil.pdf file.
