Install DRA Clients

You can install specific DRA consoles and command line clients by executing the DRAInstaller.msi with the corresponding .mst package on the installation target:

NetIQDRACLI.mst

NetIQDRAADSI.mst

Installs the DRA ADSI provider

NetIQDRAClients.mst

Installs all DRA user interfaces

To deploy specific DRA clients to multiple computers across your enterprise, configure a group policy object to install the specific .MST package.

  1. Start Active Directory Users and Computers and create a group policy object.

  2. Add the DRAInstaller.msi package to this group policy object.

  3. Ensure this group policy object has one of the following properties:

    • Each user account in the group has Power User permissions for the appropriate computer.

    • Enable the Always Install with Elevated Privileges policy setting.

  4. Add the user interface .mst file, to this group policy object.

  5. Distribute your group policy.

For more information about group policy, see Microsoft Windows Help. To easily and securely test and deploy group policy across your enterprise, use Group Policy Administrator.
