Windows Environments

The PsExec tool from Microsoft (Mark Russinovich) enables the ability for administrators to remotely copy and install Versiera Agents within an enterprise. The tool can remotely install Versiera Agent on one or multiple computers including registering the agents with the Versiera Management Console.

Detailed information regarding the PsExec (v1.97) tool and usage can be found at: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897553.aspx

1. Download PsExec tool from Microsoft and place in the executable path on a Windows computer.
   
   
2. Download the Versiera Agent for Windows installation program and place in the same directory as the PsExec executable.
   
   
3. Use an enterprise administrative account on the machine from which PsExec will be used or supply PsExec with the appropriate administrative account and password for the remote host where the Versiera agent will be installed.
   
   
4. Execute PsExec to remotely copy the Versiera Agent, silently install and register the host with the Versiera Management Console:
   
   
   
   1. psexec \\desktopA ?u domain\user ?p password ?c versiera-agent-x.x.x.x.exe /user=VersieraID /pass=password /url=https://backend.versiera.com/versiera/backend/rpc.php /verysilent
      
   
   

The Microsoft PowerShell (for Windows versions that support it) may also be used to remotely copy and install Versiera Agents to all computers in an enterprise.
