This chapter discusses the procedures to install a new Operations Manager 2007 (OpsMgr) environment on the Windows 2003 operating system. The discussion will focus on prerequisites for installation and the installation steps required for each of the Operations Manager components discussed in Chapter 4, “Planning Your Operations Manager Deployment,” and Chapter 5, “Planning Complex Configurations.” We will also review two scenarios (single-server and multiple-server configurations) for an OpsMgr configuration and discuss potential troubleshooting areas. This chapter provides the information for a successful installation of each of the components of an OpsMgr configuration. We discuss more complex implementations, including multilocation deployments, connected management groups, multihomed deployments, and redundant configurations, in Chapter 10, “Complex Configurations.”
