Hello all, my company has just finally got around to installing Zen 4 for the first time. Our biggest pain is that all of our workstation loads of client 32 didn't have the management agent checked. Is there a easy and efficient way to deploy the new agent onto these pc's through a logon script?
 
Dougwl,

Do the users have rights? If they do you can run a script bat file such as;

@ECHO OFF
msiexec.exe /i \\server\vol\ZfDAgent.msi /qn STARTUP_APPWINDOW=0 STARTUP_APPEXPLORER=1 ADDLOCAL=All
EXIT

This will not work if you don't have rights. If you have an earlier version of Zen with DLU and could promote them for a short time this would work. Or you could push an app with elevated rights.

Also Zen4 uses the agent to install all the pieces including the management agent. If the client32 had or does have the management agent does not matter. It is upgraded anyways.
