Installing GFI LanGuard Agent Manually via Command Prompt

Process

 

Important Notes

 

  • Once the agent installation completes, it is also important that you run the deployment from the GFI LanGuard console, as it would not be aware of the new agent.

  • You must deploy at least one agent from the LanGuard console before attempting a manual installation of an agent. This process populates the Crmiini.xml file with the installation ID parameters that are necessary for the manual installation command to complete successfully.

  • InstallationID_from_Crmiini.xml is a server-specific ID located in the Crmiini.xml file of the GFI LanGuard install directory on the GFI LanGuard server.
