You can manually deploy or upgrade the KACE Agent on Linux devices as needed.
◦ |
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> |
3. |
◦ |
/opt/quest/kace/bin/ where the Agent executable files are installed. |
◦ |
/var/quest/kace/ where the Agent configuration, logs, and other data is stored. |
The device information appears in the appliance Inventory within a few minutes. See Managing applications on the Software page.
You can schedule the Agent to be deployed when users start or log in to Linux devices.
The export call must precede the call to the installer. For example: export KACE_SERVER=kace_sma_name rpm -Uvh kace_sma_agent-12345.i386.rpm
The system looks for the value of host in these locations in the order shown:
2. |
KACE_SERVER (environment variable) |
3. |
The amp.conf file |
If you want to register the agent with the appliance:
◦ |
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> |
You can obtain the agent token string from the Agent Token Detail page. For more details, see Registering KACE Agent with the appliance
