Agent Procedures Overview

The Agent Procedures modules creates and schedules agent procedures on managed machines. You can view the status of all procedures run on a managed machine using Agent Procedure Status. You can also spread out the impact agent procedures have on network traffic and server loading using Distribution.

The Agent Procedures module also provides:

File Transfers - Transfer files to and from managed machines using Get File and Distribute File.
Customized Installations - When a pre-defined install solution cannot be used, use Packager to create a self-extracting file ready for automated distribution.
Patch and Application Deployment - You can schedule the installation of Microsoft and non-Microsoft applications and patches using Patch Deploy and Application Deploy.
Note: See Patch Management to install Microsoft patches on managed machines.
