Title
Agent Provisioning with WinRM -
Description
WinRM is one of the agent provisioning methods available for the KACE Systems Management Appliance. An alternative best practice approach would be the use of the GPO Tool. This article discusses the WinRM provisioning approach. -
Resolution
WinRM is the only provisioning option for Windows OS. To utilize WinRM on a provisioning schedule, simply specify the WinRM port (default is 5985) and configure the rest of the provisioning schedule as desired.
NOTE: WinRM must be enabled on endpoints for this provisioning method to succeed. WinRM is enabled by default on Windows Server operating systems, but it must be enabled on Windows client operating systems.For information about configuring/enabling WinRM on endpoints, please see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/WinRM/installation-and-configuration-for-windows-remote-management.
