1. Interactive: Interactive mode displays various dialog boxes for input regarding the following pieces of

information that the system needs to lay down the agent.

a. Installation directory – In interactive mode the user must specify the directory that the agent is to

be installed to.

b. Lock agent – If the agent is to be locked, then this box is to be checked.

c. HTTP – If this is to be an HTTP agent installation, this box is checked the user must provide a port

that the agent will use to receive request.

d. In interactive mode, if the user specifies an HTTP port already in use by the system, the program

prompts you with another selection. This process continues until an open port is found.

e. Once the following conditions are met the installation program lays down all the install, product,

and upgrade modules associated with the Agent.

2. Silent: The CMAgentInstall.exe program may be executed silently. This is available to facilitate

alternate methods of Agent deployment. For example, a common way to deploy an Agent is to create

a script that runs on the host box and executes the manual Agent install program silently. To install the

manual install program via a command line, the following options are available.

Silent mode switch is /S.

To install a DCOM agent silently, the command line is: CMAgentInstall.exe /S

INSTALLPATH=C:\MyVCM. Where INSTALLPATH is the destination of the agent files.

To install an HTTP agent silently, the command line is: CMAgentInstall.exe /S

INSTALLPATH=C:\MyVCM PORT=26542. Where PORT is the port that the agent is to use. In this

mode if the port is in use, manual install fails. The path for CMAgentInstall.exe may be a UNC

path.

3. Manual install essentially executes the same modules that the collector would to install an agent. The

following modules are executed by CMAgentInstall.exe.

a. ECMNotUpdateable.exe

b. ECMSimpleInstaller.exe

c. ECMModuleInstaller.exe

d. ECMCommon.exe

e. Optionally, CsiWin32SocketListener.exe

Uninstall

It must be pointed out that although it is possible to uninstall the agent manually, it is prone to error and

not recommended! The intent of a manual install is to install, not to uninstall.

Upgrade

A manual upgrade is not supported.

Protocol Specific

Protocol plays a fundamental role when installing, uninstalling, and upgrading. Protocol availability is

dictated on the agent by the existence of the install infrastructure module named

CsiWin32SocketListener.exe. This module contains the http service that listens to Collector requests on a

given port. The service is thin and delegates request to components that are part of the standard install.

The Collector is responsible for determining the protocol to talk to the agent with. An HTTP agent can be
