Reconfiguration and centralized reinstallation of application components

You can centrally reinstall components of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks. For example, reinstallation of components may be required in the following cases:

• To add a new sensor.
• To change settings that can be defined in the centralized installation menu.

To centrally reinstall application components, the script named 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 centralized installation script searches for a copy of the file on the computer and on other computers that have application components installed.

To centrally reinstall components of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks:

1. Run the application centralized installation script by completing steps 1–4 of the installation procedure.
2. In the menu for selecting the installation option, select Edit settings of current installation.

   The main centralized installation menu appears on the screen.

3. Depending on the necessary result, perform the following actions:
   • Using the Change Server settings menu item, specify the necessary settings for the Server.

     You cannot change the IP address of the Server. If you want to change the IP address, you need to first remove the existing Server and then add it again with the new IP address by using the Add Server menu item (this menu item appears if a Server has not been added).

   • If the Server was installed with sensors, use the Change sensor settings menu item to specify the necessary settings for the sensors.

     You cannot change the IP address of a previously added sensor. If you want to change the IP address, you need to first remove the existing sensor and then add it again with the new IP address by using the Add sensor menu item. You can also use this menu item to add new sensors.

   • 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 centrally install the application components 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.
4. When finished configuring the settings, select Save settings and start installation.

   You will be prompted to enter the password of the user running the installation.

5. Enter the password of the user running the installation. The password must be entered twice: first in the SSH password prompt and then in the BECOME password prompt.

   The installation script will begin the installation of components. During installation, the screen will display service messages regarding operations being completed.

Wait for completion of the script kics4net-deploy-<application version number>.bundle.sh.
