IBM Spectrum Control agent installation fails when files are mapped to a drive in a Windows Terminal Services environment

The IBM Spectrum® Control agent installation fails when files are mapped to a drive in a Windows™ Terminal Services environment.

Problem

The IBM Spectrum Control agent installation fails when files are mapped to a drive in a Windows Terminal Services environment.

Action

There are two ways to correct this problem:
  1. Map the installation source files through the UNC path (for example, \\<server_name>\<disk>) rather than using the drive letter (do not use net use x:\\<server_name>\<disk>).
  2. Copy the installation files manually to the target host and run the installation program locally.
