Because Lab Manager cannot detect if LM Tools is installed on the template,
specify that information if necessary in the Web console:
a
Move the pointer over the template name and choose
Properties
from the
menu.
b
Select the
LM Tools Installed
check box if you know that LM Tools exists on
that template. This selection causes Lab Manager to pass the required
information to the LM Tools utility to customize network settings. If you have
a template with LM Tools but you do not select this check box, LM Tools runs
but fails to customize the network settings.
After selecting this check box, the
Install LM Tools
button no longer appears
