Solution

 

Prerequisites

  • Install Microsoft Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) on your server.
     
  • Create the install_config.ini configuration script. It contains the parameters for the agent to communicate with your ERA Server.

    ERA Server version 6.3 and earlier: create the .mst Agent installer transform file
  • Save the Agent installer .msi file and the install_config.ini file to a shared folder all of your client computers can access with read and write permissions.

    ERA version 6.3 and earlier: save the transform .mst file to a shared folder all of your client computers can access with read and write permissions.

 



Deployment

  1. Create a new GPO to deploy the ERA Agents. Open Group Policy Management, right-click Group Policy Objects and select New. Type a name in the Name field, for example Agent deployment, and click OK.

  5. Expand Computer Configuration → Policies → Software settings.
     
  1. Right-click Software installation, select New → Package and navigate to the location where the ERA Agent installer .msi is saved. Type the full Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path of the shared installer package (for example, \\fileserver\share\filename.msi) and click Open.

    If you are deploying to 64-bit and 32-bit clients, repeat this step for both installer packages (Agent_x64.msi and Agent_x32.msi) and then follow the steps in Deploy ERA Agents to both 32-bit and 64 bit systems below.
