INSTALLING THE HP DOWNLOAD MANAGER AND UPGRADE FILES
IN A MICROSOFT WINDOWS ENVIRONMENT:
1. Obtain the necessary files and place them in a temporary directory
on your PC.
2. For IPX upgrades only, extract HP JetAdmin for Novell NetWare by
running the self extracting archive files NOVUT1.EXE AND NOVUT2.EXE
in the temporary directory (you only need to do this if you do not
have a version of JetAdmin A.01.11 or greater.)
3. Install HP JetAdmin.
4. Extract the HPDL0205.EXE file. The necessary files will be
extracted to the \HPDLINST directory.
5. Run \HPDLINST\SETUP.EXE from Windows. This will install the HP
Download Manager in the directory of your choice and create a
Windows program group for the HP Download Manager.
6. Extract the firmware file (for example, A0406EN.EXE file). The
necessary files will be extracted to the current directory. You
should extract these files in a different directory then was
created for the HPDL0205.EXE files since some of the file names are
the same.
7. Run the upgrade file, ..\SETUP.EXE, from Windows. This will install
the upgrade files in a subdirectory named ..\UPGRADES\JETDIREC
beneath the directory you specified when installing the HP Download
Manager. This is why the HP Download Manager needs to be installed
first.
IN A HP-UX 9.X ENVIRONMENT:
1. Log in as ROOT.
2. Obtain the necessary files and place them in a temporary directory
on your UNIX workstation.
3. If using HP JetAdmin for HP-UX 9.x software, you also need to
install these files.
4. Type tar xvf dlhpux9.tar (this will create the file hpdwnld.updt.Z
and a readme.txt file)
5. Type tar xvf <image>.tar (this will create the file <image>.updt.Z
and an <image>.txt file)
6. Type uncompress hpdwnld.updt.Z to decompress the Download Manager
files.
7. Type uncompress image.updt.Z (for example a0406en.updt.Z) to
decompress the image file.
8. Run /etc/update -s <full path to hpdwnld.updt file> "*" (This will
put the Download Manager program files in /usr/lib/hpnp/bin/
directory). The HP Download Manager needs to be installed before
the image is installed.
9. Run /etc/update -s <full path to image.updt file> "*" (This will
put the image files in /usr/tftpdir/upgrades/jetdirec directory).
IN A HP-UX 10.X ENVIRONMENT:
1. Log in as ROOT.
2. Obtain the necessary files and place them in a temporary directory
on your UNIX workstation.
3. If using HP JetAdmin for HP-UX 10.x software, you also need to
install these files.
4. Type tar xvf dlhpux10.tar (this will create the file
downloader.install.Z)
5. Type tar xvf <image>.tar (this will create the file
<image>.install.Z)
6. Type uncompress downloader.install.Z to decompress the Download
Manager files.
7. Type uncompress image.install.Z (for example a0406en.install.Z) to
decompress the image file.
8. Run the following command: swinstall -x reinstall=true -s <full
path to downloader.install> HPDownloader (This will put the
Download Manager program files in /opt/hpnp/bin/ directory). The
HP Download Manager needs to be installed before the image is
installed.
9. Run the following command: swinstall -x reinstall=true -s <full
path to image.updt file> imagefile (This will put the image files
in /home/tftpdir/upgrades/jetdirec directory).
GETTING STARTED WITH THE HP DOWNLOAD MANAGER
Once you have installed the program files you are ready to use the HP
Download Manager.
TO INVOKE THE HP DOWNLOAD MANAGER FROM JETADMIN FOR NOVELL IN A MICROSOFT
WINDOWS* ENVIRONMENT:

If it does, then you can disregard the rest of these instructions.
2. Go into the Control Panel.
3. Double click on the Network icon. To get the Auto Discovery mode of
the Download Manager to work we need to check that the following

-For the Server version of NT: Gateway Service for Netware
-For the Workstation version of NT: Client Services for NetWare.
Load these services by doing the following:
* Click on Add Software.
* Choose the right choice for your setup (Server or
Workstation).
* Click OK to add the service.
