agent deployment

[lindeamon]

hi,

can anyone tell what is the best way to deploy a windows agent ?
for me,the ultimate way is to deploy it via the netxms program but it is possible only to deploy to already installed agents

Hi!

Unfortunately there are no built-in tolls for initial agent deployment. For Windows, you can slightly simplify agent deployment by using automated (silent) install mode, activated by /VERYSILENT command line option of agent installer. All possible command line options for installer described in installation manual. I'm not a big expert in WIndows domain administration, but probably you can use group policies to distribute and install agent in unattended mode on domain computers.

Best regards,
Victor

hi victor,

isn't there a way to do it with action command running the agent file from a shared network drive when a new node is added and one of it's attributes is "win-i386" ?
