Installing Deployment Solution agents
Each client computer requires the Deployment Agent to run as the Production Agent on
a local hard disk, which communicates with the Deployment Server and registers in the
Deployment Database. For Windows and Linux client computers, Deployment Solution
lets you push agent software to a client computer from a Deployment Console, or you
can pull the Deployment agent to the client computer from the Deployment Web Console
(or pull it from the Deployment Share).
You can install an embedded (recommended) or hidden automation partition, which
contains an Automation Agent that establishes communications with the Deployment
Server to run the deployment jobs that are assigned to the client computer.
See Install automation partition on page 133.
z Deployment Agent. Install a Production Agent to a Windows desktop, notebook, or
server computer. You can also install this agent on any supported Linux workstation
or server. See Installing the Deployment Agent on page 353.
z Deployment Agent on Linux. Install on any supported Linux workstation or
server. See Installing Deployment Agent on Linux on page 357.
