The 3rd screen lets you use existing “Credentials” to perform the remote installation, or lets you specify credentials as needed.

Also note that the specified credentials can be saved for the session only if your policy prohibits storing credential information.

When you click “Finish”, the Leaf­Agent will be pushed, and status information displayed. At the end of the dialogue you will be notified of success. A “head” icon (highlighted below) indicates an installed Leaf­Agent (see below). Allow a few minutes for starting the Leaf­Agent service and updating the database. You may get “Unable to Connect” until the Leaf­Agent is ready.

Once you have a Leaf­Agent target, go ahead and query the machine and deploy patches to it if you wish. Installing Leaf­Agents doesn’t change the patch deployment logic in any substantial way, making it easy to work with a mix of Agentless and Leaf­Agent machines.

In summary, Leaf­Agent installation options include:

Remote

Local

Command­Line

Active Directory

(non­hardened targets ... as shown above)

(hardened targets ... you can install just the Agent­Installer, see Custom Install) (Mass Deploy)

(Mass Deploy)

See this When Should I Deploy Leaf­Agents? for more information. Please contact Tech­Support for questions or assistance.
