You can use the Site Installation Package to create a one-click Remote Worker installer package for a target Client and Site. When the installer package runs on a device, it adds the device to the target Client and Site on the All Devices view. For example, end users could run the install package on their devices, or a script could run it on many devices, to deploy the Agent. Agent_*.exe compressed file. For user self-deployment. Unpack the file and click the executable to install. This installer is aimed at non-Active Directory networks or for Active Directory computers (laptops) that are infrequently connected to the network. |
Agent Mode automatic with Site Installation Package
When you install the Windows Agent using a site installation package, the Agent automatically determines the device type — server or workstation, and then installs the appropriate mode.
If you need to use server-only Checks on a workstation, we recommend you manually install the Agent on the workstation because it allows you to select workstation or Server Mode.
Server, not workstation, prices are applied when you install the Agent in Server Mode on a workstation.
