  • 1.  no local altiris acccess / different console view

    Posted May 31, 2013 10:33 AM

    Hi,

     

    Anyone got any ideas what I am doing wrong here?

     

    Have set up ODBC connector to sql Database for the Altiris Deployment server and then i open the console locally by browsing to the .exe file on the deployment share and copying locally ( i am domian admin  in terms of permissions) - the console opens no problems but there is no content in the console. When i say no content i mean it does not display the same computers / jobs etc as logging into the actual server and opening the console direct from there.

     

    We have always used DS in this way before with previous versions without issue - any ideas what needs to be done to make this work?

     

    version 6.9 sp5 build 517

     

    Thanks In advance

     

    Jason

    Hello Jason,

    Try running the DS setup command from this new computer and select the "custom install" option, and selecting only the console to be installed. http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO3211.  This has always worked for me in the past.
