Reconfiguring and reinstalling the application

Reinstallation of components of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks may be required for the following purposes:

Like the installation procedure, reinstallation of components of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks is performed using the application installation script named kics4net-deploy-<application version number>.bundle.sh.

To reinstall application components, the script kics4net-deploy-<application version number>.bundle.sh uses the installation settings file that was saved on the computer. If the installation settings file on this computer is corrupt or missing from its original folder, the application installation script searches for a copy of the file on the computer and on other computers that have application components installed.

    • Use the Change the user running the installation menu item to specify the user name of the account with root privileges that will be used to install the application on computers. This account will be used on those nodes for which no additional account was specified when configuring advanced settings of the Server or sensors.
    • Using the Change interface language menu item, select the localization language for components of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks.
