rockshox 5 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 We appear to have the same issue. We've always deployed the agent using the wizard that created the task automatically, we entered credentials, selected the settings we wanted and the agent pushed out immediately. In version 9.1 all the Deploy Agent options are worthless as part of the Right Click menu. They all want to create downloadable installers, or scripts that can be deployed which I understand how that would work, but our techs all used the wizard and just pushed the agent straight out to the computer. I did find that I can find the old deployment interface by going directly to the Agent Deployment tasks and creating a new Server Task for Agent Deployment. Why isn't this available in the right click menu like it was previously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockshox 5 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) Just to be clear on what I am referring to (and what I believe the OP is referencing) here is a screenshot what we used previously to deploy the agent. We would select the new client, then Deploy Agent, select "Server Task Agent Installation" and fill out the few fields needed for the task and deploy the agent. I found we can still get to the Server Task for Agent Deployment manually by going to Tasks, but it's missing as one of the options in the right-click Deploy Agent menu.

kamiran.asia 5 Posted August 3, 2022 Author Share Posted August 3, 2022 It must be a bug in ESET Protect 9.1 and it may be fix in next release. ESET admins must approve it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Solution Marcos 4,922 Posted August 5, 2022 Administrators Solution Share Posted August 5, 2022 The removal of the agent deployment task was intentional as we prefer using installers and the Remote deployment tool for deployment which is far more reliable than the task from the management console.

rockshox 5 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Marcos - Thanks for the reply. That would explain why it is missing, which is too bad as that is the primary way we have always deployed the agent and it works flawlessly for us. We will have to try out the other methods or just create the task from the Tasks menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 4,922 Posted August 6, 2022 Administrators Share Posted August 6, 2022 There's an ongoing internal discussion on this topic so it's possible that some further changes with regard to agent deployment will be made since our goal is not to make things more difficult for you, quite the contrary.
