2.1.2 Installing a relay system
There are three ways to install a relay system. Use the method that is appropriate for your environment.
- Installation using supplied media
-
This method involves installing the relay system program on the target computer, specifying the required settings as you go. After installation, you need to perform the setup process. We recommend this method if you need to set different values during the installation and setup of individual relay systems.
- Installation using an installation set
-
First, you need to create the installation set for the relay system. You can then use this installation set to install the relay system on the target computer. To distribute the installation set you created to the relay system, you can place it on a Web server or file server, write it to CD-R or USB memory, or attach it to an email. The values specified in the agent configuration are used during installation and setup.
- Deploying the software to individual computers
-
You can deploy the relay system program to individual computers found by a discovery process. To deploy the relay system program individually, you need to create an agent configuration for the relay system. The administrator can then select a target computer in the user interface and deploy the agent configuration for the relay system to that computer individually. The values specified in the agent configuration are used during installation and setup.
Unless you need to specify special settings, we recommend that you use the installation method that uses an installation set, or the method in which the program is individually deployed on target computers.
- Tip
-
You can find out whether the relay system program is installed by viewing the Device List view in the Device module.
