Obtaining Agent installation files

Obtaining Agent installation files

Agent installation files are available on the appliance.

You can find the KACE Agent installers for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux devices on the appliance in the following directory:

\\appliance_hostname\client\agent_provisioning

* 
NOTE: File sharing must be enabled to access the installers. See Enable file sharing at the System level.

The appliance uses a registration process, allowing authenticated KACE Agents to connect to the appliance, either by associating a token with an Agent, or having an appliance administrator approve a connection request. Agent installers obtained this way do not include a valid token. You can pass the agent token to the installer manually using one of the following options:

•
Windows devices:
◦
Use the following parameters when starting the installer: HOST=<appliance_hostname> TOKEN=<agent_token>, or:
◦
Manually change the installation file name using the following syntax: AMPAgent-xx.xx.xx-x86_<appliance_hostname>+<agent_token>.msi
•
Non-Windows devices:
◦
Use the KACE_HOST and KACE_TOKEN environment variables to specify the appliance host name and agent token before you run the installation file, or:
◦
Manually change the installation file name using the following syntax: <agent_installation_filename>_<appliance_hostname>+<agent_token>.<extension>

If you do not specify a valid token string during the Agent installation, any connection requests result in the Agent being quarantined.

Alternatively, you can download Agent token installer bundles for your operating system from the Agent Token Detail page. For complete information, see Registering KACE Agent with the appliance.

Manually deploy the KACE Agent on Windows devices using the Command line

There are several ways to deploy the Agent from the command line on Windows devices.

For example:

•
In a batch file as part of a logon script that runs the installer (msiexec) and sets various parameters, such as the value of the host.
•
Set an environment variable for the server name then run the installer.
•
Change name of the installer, which automatically sets the server name during the installation.

The following table shows command line parameters used to deploy the Agent.

Table 21. Command line parameters for the Agent
