karsayor 8 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Hello, With the Remote Installation method (Method II : hxxp://support.eset.com/kb3595/),what happens if some computers are offline when the task is scheduled to run ? I suppose agent is never deployed in that case, and you should make the task run on daily basis for exemple. But in case you run the agent deployment task on computers that already have the agent, I think the agent will be reinstalled everytime the schedule is run. Am I correct that the agent would be reinstalled every day on computers that have it already in this case ? What's the best way to deploy agent on all computers of the domain, making sur that offline computers will install agent next time they'll be started and that computers already having the agent are not installing it eveytime the task is fired ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ict@flinter.nl 0 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Hi, I am having the same issue. I do not want to push this with GPO so i am going to try and work with the dynamic groups in ERA itself. I guess with correct filters it should be possible to start this task on targets in the right AD group, which do not have the agent installed and are online (responding to ping or whatever). Will report back if i am succesful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karsayor 8 Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share Posted November 10, 2015 AFAIK Dynamic groups shouldn't work since only computers that already have the agent will show up in the dynamic groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexisonfire 0 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Just gona cote a line from the manual. This is under Trigger: As Soon As Possible - Executes the task as soon as the client connects to ESET Remote Administrator Server and receives the task. If the task cannot be performed until the Expiration date, the task will be removed from the queue - the task will not be deleted, but it will not be executed. hxxp://help.eset.com/era_admin/62/en-US/index.html?server_tasks_agent_deployment.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karsayor 8 Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 Yes it would be fine but you cannot select ASAP for agent deployment task... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
