Hi everybody,

I am testing a new site server and for design purpose, I need the installation path to point to D:\Program Files\Altiris\Altiris Agent, rather than C:\Program Files\Altiris\Altiris Agent in the new server

altiris version: 7.1

OS: windows 2008

what I tested so far was; adding the new server in the webconsole, then I could see the new server been populated under "C:\Program Files\Altiris\Altiris Agent\Package Delivery" but I want this to point to D:\

I will appreciate any help or if you can point me to a document or forum article

Thanks

I found the anwer in the following forum

https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/site-server-package-store

Thanks

I ticked Package destination location on package servers and I changed the path to D:\Program Files\Altiris\Altiris Agent\Package Delivery

But in the site server information it said "No installed"

is there anything else I need to check apart of the above options

By the way, for the record in the site server, the altiris agent is installed in D:\Program Files\Altiris

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Mark

The easiest way to change the package server repository is to deploy the agent on the right Folder/Drive

in the acual agent Folder (C:\Program files\altiris\altiris agent) on the package server

run in cmd aexagentutil.exe /clean to desinstall the agent

copy aexnsc.exe on the package server

run aexnsc.exe -s NS=YourNSServer PATH="D:\WhereYouWantToInstallTheAgent" ADDREMOVE /s

after you promote the server as a package server in the console

If the agent is on D:\, it should have delivered the packages to the D:\Program Files\Altiris\Altiris Agent\Package Delivery as described in your original post, not the same location on C:\.  I recommend that you uninstall site services and the agent, and reinstall to the D:\ drive, then reprovision as a site server.  You shouldn't need to specify an alternate location because it should use D:\ by default since that's where the agent resides.

Thanks for your replay people, I reinstalled the agent pointing to D drive and reprovisioned the site server and it all good now

Thanks for your help
