Reinstall ERA from scratch


BizzDev

Recommended Posts

Hello

We have a problem with our ERA server : it crashed and we lost all the configuration.

All computers have agent and Endpoint antivirus installed, from the old server.

 

We've reinstalled ERA on a new server (different name).

We need to reinstall the agent on all computers to get them back in ERA.

Can you give us a way to do that please ?

is it useless to reinstall the endpoint antivirus so ?

 

Thanks a lot

You only need to create a new agent live installer and re-deploy it on clients, ideally via GPO if you have more computers that are in a domain.

With Endpoint you don't have to do anything since it's only agent that communicates with the ESMC server.

Hi Marcos

Thanks for your answer.

 

So the new agent will overwrite the old one right ?

Not really. During the first run it will update the peer and CA certificate as well as the ESMC server address.

Coincidentally, the ESMC server here also went AWOL and it was a frustrating experience (mainly due to the fact that I had other fires to fight).  I used GPO to deploy a new installer w/ install_config.ini; but there were a few stragglers that refused to connect to the new server.  So I just locally removed the ESET agent and AV and started over again.

But thanks Marcos,  I'll keep that in mind.
