- The Agent Batch Installer provides a solution that:
- deploys JobScheduler Universal Agents
- and allows the installation or update of any number of Agents on multiple servers.
- The Agent Batch Installer is used for deploying Agents to Unix systems. It is not available for Windows systems for the following reasons:
- The JobScheduler Master transfers the files needed for deployment to the Agent servers using SSH:
- Windows standard installations do not come with an SSH server. This means that additional software would have to be installed on every Agent server just for performing the file transfer.
- Note that this only applies for the Agent servers. If the JobScheduler Master is running on a Windows machine, this solution can still be used for deploying the Agents from there to Unix servers.
- Most Windows administrators work already with other more complex tools to deploy software on Windows machines (deployment tools such as SCCM), whereas for Unix the deployment tools are not that complex and it makes sense to offer such a tool for them.
- The JobScheduler Master transfers the files needed for deployment to the Agent servers using SSH:
- The Agent Batch Installer solution can be downloaded from http://www.sos-berlin.com/jobscheduler-downloads, see "Universal Agent Batch Installer".
- The Batch Installer supports:
- First Installation: an Agent has not yet been installed on the server.
- Update Installation: an Agent has already been installed and may be up and running.
- Note that the Batch Installer is only available for the current JobScheduler Universal Agent version.
