Local Client/Agent Network Connection

You can run both the Client and Agent on the same Windows NT, Windows 2000,
or Windows Server 2003 host machine and connect them using a network
connection. By doing so, you can create a local connection to take advantage of
the Agent's event notification features. No special installation instructions are
necessary to implement this type of connection. Install each component as if the
Client were to run on a system remote from the host machine.

Because the Client runs only on Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows
Server 2003 systems, and the Agent runs on Windows NT, UNIX-based systems,
and OpenVMS, you can implement this type of connection only on a Windows
NT system. Also, you cannot use a Client with a local connection of either type
while an Agent is running on the local machine.

Note:

SWCC is no longer supported on Novell NetWare systems with HBA

281540-B21 (3R-A3750-AA).
