5.8 Procedure for registering components
Components include agents, site server programs, and network access control agents.
When an updated component or a correction patch is released, it is useful to register the program on a management server and then set automatic updating for it.
If you do not want to update components automatically because you want to control the timing due to network load, you can register the package automatically by registering the updated version of the programs on the management server. In this case, specify the automatically registered package and create a task to distribute the programs.
- Tip
-
When upgrading JP1/IT Desktop Management - Manager, you can set automatic component updating or package registration during an overwrite installation of JP1/IT Desktop Management - Manager. In this case, you do not need to perform any of the operations described here because updated components are registered on the management server and distributed or the package is registered automatically.
- Tip
-
When the agent, the network access control agent, and the site server program are updated automatically, data is sent from the management server to each computer. About 30 megabytes of data is sent to a computer on which an agent is installed. Added to this, about four megabytes of data is sent to a computer on which both a network access control agent and an agent are installed, and about 120 megabytes of data is sent to a computer on which both a site server program and an agent are installed.
To register a component:
-
Obtain the updated component or correction patch.
-
On the Windows Start menu, select All Programs, JP1_IT Desktop Management - Manager, Tools, and Component Registration.
-
In the dialog box that opens, click the Browse button to specify the upgrade version of a component or a correction patch in the folder to which you downloaded these programs.
-
For the registered component, specify the settings related to automatic updating and package registration.
-
Click the OK button.
The upgrade version of a component or the correction patch is registered on the management server, and is distributed, or the package is registered according to the settings.
