Client Management Suite

Hi, just trying to figure out the best way to deploy a SWV layer and agent without user/tech interaction.

I have found the SWV agent will not install if  the PC needs a reboot (due to patching etc), so I would have to check that before starting. Then when the agent it installs it will need a reboot before the layer is deployed/imported. After reboot I can then deploy the application layer.

Would a policy be the best option for this or a quick task ? How would I detect if it needs reboot ? anyone got anything similar ?

Any help appreciated.

A MSD would probably be the best option, yes.

If you cant find the reboot requirement syntax, then a MSD that contains the following would be good to go:

Reboot task.

Install SWVAgent either using the suppressreboot swicth or allowing reboot.

If reboot will be suppressed, then add a nother reboot task.

If there are a number of layers that all machines will get, add each one next.
