2 Introduction<br />
2.1 Who should read this <strong>manual</strong>?<br />
This <strong>manual</strong> is written for all who want to gain a deeper insight into the mechanisms and the tools of the client<br />
management system <strong>opsi</strong> ("open pc server integration").<br />
It presents a complete HOWTO for the use of <strong>opsi</strong> while emphasizing the understanding of the technical background.<br />
The decision maker who decides on using <strong>opsi</strong> as well as the system administrator who works with it will get a solid<br />
foundation for their tasks.<br />
2.2 Notations<br />
Angle brackets < > mark abstract names. In a concrete context any marked must be replaced by<br />
some real name. Example: The file share, where <strong>opsi</strong> places the software packets, may abstractly be noted as .<br />
If the real fileshare is /opt/pcbin/install, then you have to replace the abstract name by exactly this<br />
string. The location of the packet /ooffice becomes /opt/pcbin/install/ooffice.<br />
Example snippets from program code or configuration files use a Courier font, with a background color:<br />
