The service starts automatically. Wait until the system tray icon displays a green check mark to begin using the software.

NOTE: An icon in the Windows® system tray shows the status of the management module. It might take a few moments for the icon to change. A green check mark appears if the management module is communicating with the agent without errors. If the service has

stopped, a blue hexagon icon appears. A red icon appears if the software is not configured, the UPS is not connected, or the agent and management module are not communicating. Hover over the icon with the mouse pointer, and a tool tip displays a status message. For more information about the system tray icon status messages, see "System tray icon (on page 42)."

NOTE: To reconfigure the agent, see "Reconfiguring the agent on Windows® Operating Systems ("Reconfiguring the agent on Windows operating systems" on page 32)."

Installing the agent using the silent installation method

Silent installation is typically used by system administrators who have many installations that are configured identically and require minimal user interaction. During a silent installation you will:

Install an agent through the assisted installation method that is appropriate for the operating system.

Configure the agent exactly as the final replicated systems should be configured.

NOTE: You must configure the IP address of the management module. Create a DevManRA.ini file for each site. This points each agent to the correct management module and is the more secure option.

Use the DevManRA.ini file that is generated in the directory of the application as a template in the agent silent install process.
