Creating a remote installation task
The Install application remotely task is designed for remote installation of Kaspersky Endpoint Security. The Install application remotely task allows you to deploy the installation package of the application to all computers in the organization. Before deploying the installation package, you can update the anti-virus databases inside the package and select the available application components in the properties of the installation package.
How to create a remote installation task in the Administration Console (MMC)
- In the Administration Console, go to the folder Administration Server → Tasks.
The list of tasks opens.
- Click the New task button.
The Task Wizard starts. Follow the instructions of the Wizard.
Step 1. Selecting task type
Select Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server → Install application remotely.
Step 2. Selecting an installation package
Select Kaspersky Endpoint Security installation package from the list. If the list does not contain the installation package for Kaspersky Endpoint Security, you can create the package in the Wizard.
You can configure the installation package settings in Kaspersky Security Center. For example, you can select the application components that will be installed to a computer.
Network Agent will also be installed together with Kaspersky Endpoint Security. Network Agent facilitates interaction between the Administration Server and a client computer. If Network Agent is already installed on the computer, it is not installed again.
Step 3. Additional
Select the Network Agent installation package. The selected version of Network Agent will be installed together with Kaspersky Endpoint Security.
Step 4. Settings
Configure the following additional application settings:
- Force installation package download. Select the method of application installation:
- Using Network Agent. If Network Agent has not been installed on the computer, first Network Agent will be installed using the tools of the operating system. Then Kaspersky Endpoint Security is installed by the tools of Network Agent.
- Using operating system resources through distribution points. The installation package is delivered to client computers using operating system resources via distribution points. You can select this option if there is at least one distribution point in the network. For more details about distribution points, refer to the Kaspersky Security Center Help.
- Using operating system resources through Administration Server. Files will be delivered to client computers by using operating system resources through the Administration Server. You can select this option if Network Agent is not installed on the client computer, but the client computer is in the same network as the Administration Server.
- Behavior for devices managed through other Administration Servers. Select the Kaspersky Endpoint Security installation method. If the network has more than one Administration Server installed, these Administration Servers may see the same client computers. This may cause, for example, an application to be installed remotely on the same client computer several times through different Administration Servers, or other conflicts.
- Do not re-install application if it is already installed. Clear this check box if you want to install an earlier version of the application, for example.
Step 5. Selecting the operating system restart setting
Select the action to be performed if a computer restart is required. Restart is not required when installing Kaspersky Endpoint Security. Restart is required only if you have to remove incompatible applications prior to installation. Restart may also be required when updating the application version.
Step 6. Selecting the devices to which the task will be assigned
Select the computers for installing Kaspersky Endpoint Security. The following options are available:
- Assign the task to an administration group. In this case, the task is assigned to computers included in a previously created administration group.
- Select computers detected by the Administration Server in the network: unassigned devices. Network Agent is not installed on unassigned devices. In this case, the task is assigned to specific devices. The specific devices can include devices in administration groups as well as unassigned devices.
- Specify device addresses manually, or import addresses from a list. You can specify NetBIOS names, IP addresses, and IP subnets of devices to which you want to assign the task.
Step 7. Selecting the account to run the task
Select the account for installing Network Agent using the tools of the operating system. In this case, administrator rights are required for computer access. You can add multiple accounts. If an account does not have sufficient rights, the Installation Wizard uses the next account. If you install Kaspersky Endpoint Security using Network Agent tools, you do not have to select an account.
Step 8. Configuring a task start schedule
Configure a schedule for starting a task, for example, manually or when the computer is idle.
Step 9. Defining the task name
Enter a name for the task, for example, Install Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows 12.1.
Step 10. Finishing task creation
Exit the Wizard. If necessary, select the Run the task after the Wizard finishes check box. You can monitor the progress of the task in the task properties. The application will be installed in silent mode. After installation, the icon will be added to the notification area of the user's computer. If the icon looks like this
, make sure that you activated the application.
How to create a remote installation task in the Web Console and Cloud Console
- In the main window of the Web Console, select Devices → Tasks.
The list of tasks opens.
- Click the Add button.
The Task Wizard starts. Follow the instructions of the Wizard.
Step 1. Configuring general task settings
Configure the general task settings:
- In the Application drop-down list, select Kaspersky Security Center.
- In the Task type drop-down list, select Install application remotely.
- In the Task name field, enter a brief description, such as Installation of Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Managers.
- In the Select devices to which the task will be assigned block, select the task scope.
Step 2. Selecting computers for installation
At this step, select the computers on which Kaspersky Endpoint Security will be installed according to the selected task scope option.
Step 3. Configuring an installation package
At this step, configure the installation package:
- Select the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows (12.1) installation package.
- Select the Network Agent installation package.
The selected version of Network Agent will be installed together with Kaspersky Endpoint Security. Network Agent facilitates interaction between the Administration Server and a client computer. If Network Agent is already installed on the computer, it is not installed again.
- In the Force installation package download block, select the application installation method:
- Using Network Agent. If Network Agent has not been installed on the computer, first Network Agent will be installed using the tools of the operating system. Then Kaspersky Endpoint Security is installed by the tools of Network Agent.
- Using operating system resources through distribution points. The installation package is delivered to client computers using operating system resources via distribution points. You can select this option if there is at least one distribution point in the network. For more details about distribution points, refer to the Kaspersky Security Center Help.
- Using operating system resources through Administration Server. Files will be delivered to client computers by using operating system resources through the Administration Server. You can select this option if Network Agent is not installed on the client computer, but the client computer is in the same network as the Administration Server.
- In the Maximum number of concurrent downloads field, set a limit on the number of installation package download requests sent to the Administration Server. A limit on the number of requests will help prevent the network from being overload.
- In the Maximum number of installation attempts field, set a limit on the number of attempts to install the application. If installation of Kaspersky Endpoint Security ends with an error, the task will automatically start the installation again.
- If necessary, clear the Do not re-install application if it is already installed check box. It allows, for example, to install one of the previous versions of the application.
- If necessary, clear the Verify operating system type before downloading check box. This lets you avoid downloading an application distribution package if the operating system of the computer does not meet the software requirements. If you are sure that the operating system of the computer meets the software requirements, you can skip this verification.
- If necessary, select the Assign package installation in Active Directory group policies check box. Kaspersky Endpoint Security is installed by means of Network Agent or manually by means of Active Directory. To install Network Agent, the remote installation task must be run with domain administrator privileges.
- If necessary, select the Prompt users to close running applications check box. Installation of Kaspersky Endpoint Security takes up computer resources. For the convenience of the user, the Application Installation Wizard prompts you to close running applications before starting the installation. This helps prevent disruptions in the operation of other applications and prevents possible malfunctions of the computer.
- In the Behavior for devices managed through other Administration Servers block, select the Kaspersky Endpoint Security installation method. If the network has more than one Administration Server installed, these Administration Servers may see the same client computers. This may cause, for example, an application to be installed remotely on the same client computer several times through different Administration Servers, or other conflicts.
Step 4. Selecting the account to run the task
Select the account for installing Network Agent using the tools of the operating system. In this case, administrator rights are required for computer access. You can add multiple accounts. If an account does not have sufficient rights, the Installation Wizard uses the next account. If you install Kaspersky Endpoint Security using Network Agent tools, you do not have to select an account.
Step 5. Completing task creation
Finish the wizard by clicking the Finish button. A new task will be displayed in the list of tasks. To run a task, select the check box opposite the task and click the Start button. The application will be installed in silent mode. After installation, the icon will be added to the notification area of the user's computer. If the icon looks like this
, make sure that you activated the application.
