The Agents tab displays a list of Agents that are connected to the server. On this tab, you can configure and run automatic updates for each Agent.

The list of Agents

The list of Agents is a table of all Agents that have connected to the Server at least once. It contains the following information about each Agent:

  1. Name is the name of the computer on which the Agent is installed.
  2. Status is the status of the computer. The computer can be available (Ready) or not available (No connection).
  3. Product status is the status of the installed software package: running (On) or not (Off).
  4. Installed products is the list of versions of the installed software components.

Configuring and running updates

  1. From the Update archive drop-down list, select one of the available update packages (1).

  2. In the Timeout (seconds) field, set the update timeout in seconds (2)—the time in which the installation process must be completed. If the installation isn’t completed within this time, it will be forced to stop. The default value is 600 seconds.

  3. Set the checkboxes next to the Agents on which you want to install the selected update. To select all Agents, set the Select all checkbox (3).
  4. If you want to run Intellect after an update, set the Run Intellect after update checkbox (4).

  5. If you want to run the update later at a scheduled time, set the date and time in the corresponding Update at fields (5). By default, the current time is set, that doesn’t need to be changed if you don’t want to postpone the update installation.

    Note

    You can set only the current time and future time in the Update at fields.


  6. Click the Update button (6).

As a result:

  • if you set the current or earlier date and time in the Update at field, the installation of the specified update package will start immediately on the selected Agents;
  • if you set a later date and time in the Update at field, the specified update package will be downloaded and unpacked immediately on the selected Agents, but the installation will run at the set time.

Note

The  button restarts the operating system on the selected Agents.
