Installing the GroupWise Windows Client Using ZCM


For ZENworks 10, the following .msi files must be distributed before the GroupWise client software:
  • wse3.msi
  • mxsml.msi
To successfully distribute the GroupWise Windows client software using ZENworks 10:
  1. Create a ZENworks bundle for each .msi file:
    1. In the ZENworks Control Center, click Bundles, then click New > Bundle.
    2. Select Windows Bundle, then click Next.
    3. Select MSI Application, then click Next.
    4. Specify a name for the bundle such as WSE3, MSXML, or GroupWise Windows Client, then click Next.
    5. Select the .msi file for each bundle:
      1. In the Upload .msi file for normal install field, browse to and select each .msi file in your GroupWise software distribution directory: \grpwise\software\client\win32
      2. (Conditional) For the wse3.msi and msxml.msi files, do not select Include all files in and below the directory of this file. or (Conditional) For the groupwise.msi file, select Include all files in and below the directory of this file. This includes all the contents of the win32 subdirectory, which is the GroupWise client software.
      3. Click OK.
    6. Click Next.
    7. Finish creating each bundle as usual.
  2. After you create all three bundles, set the executable security level for each bundle:
    1. Click each bundle name, then click the Actions tab.
    2. Click the Install tab, then click Install MSI.
    3. Click More Options.
    4. Set Executable security level to Run as dynamic administration, then click OK.
  3. Assign each bundle to the appropriate GroupWise users.
  4. Create a launch schedule for each bundle so that the bundles launch in the following order:
    • wse3.msi
    • msxml.msi
    • groupwise.msi
