2.6 Install the Client (CT)

This section describes how to newly install the client (CT) of Systemwalker Desktop Keeper.

The installation method of the client (CT) of Systemwalker Desktop Keeper is as follows. For an overview, refer to "1.2.5 Determine How to Install Client (CT)".

If the old version of the client (CT) has been installed, refer to "Chapter 4 Upgrading" when installing the client (CT) V15.1.0.

Note

When installing the client (CT) on Management (Master Management) Server

When installing the client (CT) on a Management Server, pay attention to the following two points:

  • Installation sequence

  • Server to be connected

For details, refer to "When a client (CT) is installed on Management Server/Master Management Server".

When copying the client (CT) installation command (Setup.exe) and performing installation

Ensure that the client (CT) installation folder is copied before performing the installation. The client (CT) installation folder is "win32\DTKClient" in the setup disk.

When unable to confirm the installed client (CT) through Management Console

When unable to confirm the installed client (CT) through the Management Console, the following reasons can be taken into consideration:

  • IP address of the Management Server specified during client (CT) installation is incorrect.

  • Port number specified during client (CT) installation is different from the configuration value of the Management Server.

  • Due to reasons such as the router, the port used between the client (CT) and the Management Server has been blocked.

Network has been disconnected in the installation process of the client (CT)

The network will be temporarily disconnected during the installation of the client (CT). If the network folder is opened by Windows Explorer, close it.

Notes on installing a client (CT) on Windows(R) 8, Windows(R) 10

If you have upgraded a client (CT) and clicked No, restart the computer later in the Installation Complete window, you must restart the operating system.

Even clicking Shut Down (operation for shut down and power on a system) to shut down the operating system does not apply the client (CT) feature.

Do not forget your password

When uninstalling the client (CT), you will need the password that you used during its installation.

Write down the password in case you forget it.

Verification when registering client (CT) devices

When performing verification during client (CT) device registration, the password to be entered during installation must be the same as the client management password specified in the Terminal Operation Settings window of the Management Console.

Refer to "Perform Terminal Operation Settings" in the User's Guide for Administrator for details on setting a client management password in the Management Console.

Communication port to specify for the client (CT) installation

The proprietary communication method (V15.1.1 or earlier communication method) is always used for installation, so the port number for the proprietary communication method needs to be specified even when the secure communication method is used.

Installing other software

After installing a client (CT), restart the operating system. If you install other software without restarting the operating system, the client (CT) may not be installed properly.

Point
