Installation changes from Drivers 22 to Drivers 23

Drivers 23 contains the following two packages:

  • Filename: ITNCM_Drivers23_Installers.zip. Part number: M0B97EN
  • Filename: ITNCM_Autodiscovery-6.7.0.zip. Part number: M0B98EN

The ITNCM_Drivers23_Installers.zip package contains all the individual drivers, which are segregated by vendor, type, model, and operating system. Inside this package are various vendor folders, each of which contains sub-folders for all supported types. Each type folder contains sub-folders for model, and each model folder contains drivers for all supported operating systems for that model.

The ITNCM_Autodiscovery-6.7.0.zip package contains the latest version of autodiscovery.

Restriction:

Drivers 22 and above requires Netcool Configuration Manager FP16 or above, to maintain Log4j version compatibility between Netcool Configuration Manager Core and Drivers.

You can not combine any drivers from an older version with drivers from Drivers 23 due to a Log4j version conflict. All drivers need to be upgraded to Drivers 23.
