5.9 Procedure for registering components
Components include agents and network monitor 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 2 - Manager, you can set automatic component updating or package registration during an overwrite installation of JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - 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 and network monitor agent are updated automatically, data is sent to each computer from the management server. Approximately 80 megabytes of data is sent to each computer on which an agent is installed. An additional 5 megabytes of data is sent to computers on which the agent and network monitor agent are both installed.
To register a component:
-
Obtain the updated component or correction patch.
-
On the Windows Start menu, select All Programs, JP1_IT Desktop Management 2 - 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.
- Tip
-
If the version of the component to be registered is the same as or older than the already registered version, "Package has already been registered. Please delete the registered package and then re-register the package." Error message will be output.
