Maintaining Agent Install Packages

Updating the Agent Software

An agent install package always downloads a KcsSetup.exe that uses the latest version of the agent software available. Once the KcsSetup.exe file is created, its version of the agent software remains fixed within the exe. Consider replacing KcsSetup.exe files that were created a while ago, then stored in network locations or added to CDs for ease of distribution. Similarly, the version of agent software installed on machines always remains fixed, until you update them using the Update Agent page.

Editing the Default Install Package

The Default Install package sets the default values displayed when you create a new package. Normally the Default Install package cannot be modified. The Save button is disabled. To enable the Save button for the Default Install package, do the following as a master role user:

1. Click the Share button next to the Default Install package in Agent > Deploy Agents.
2. Check Allow other users to modify.
3. Click Save.
4. Click the edit icon next to the Default Install package.

The Save button will be enabled when you edit the Default Install package.

Note: If you delete the Default Install package, it is re-created immediately.
