Creating a Light Agent for Windows installation package
The installation package is required for remote installation of the Light Agent for Windows component via Kaspersky Security Center.
To create a Light Agent for Windows installation package:
Open Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console.
In the console tree, select Additional -> Remote installation -> Installation packages.
Click the Create installation package button to launch the installation package creation wizard.
In the wizard window that opens, click the Create installation package for a Kaspersky Lab application button.
In the wizard window that opens, enter the name of the installation package and proceed to the next step of the wizard.
In the Select application installation package for installation window of the wizard, select the installation package of Kaspersky Security. To do this, perform the following actions:
Click Select and enter the path to the installation package in the standard Open window of Microsoft Windows. You can select one of the following files from the Kaspersky Security application distribution kit as the application setup file:
The self-extracting archive Agent_5.0.X.X_sfx_<language ID>.exe, where 5.0.X.X is the number of the application version; <language ID> is the two-letter ID of the language localization of Light Agent for Windows: ru, en, fr, de, etc.
The file Ksvla.kud, which is included in the self-extracting archive Agent_5.0.X.X_sfx_<language ID>.exe. If you want to use the Ksvla.kud file, you must first unpack the archive.
If the installation package is intended for installing Light Agent for Windows to virtual machines on which Citrix Provisioning Services technology is used, you need to perform one of the following actions:
When creating the installation package, use the Ksvla.kud file after editing it as follows: in the [Setup] section, at the end of the Params=/s /pAKINSTALL=1 /pEULAANDPRIVACYPOLICY=1 string, add the parameter /pINSTALLONPVS=1.
The Select application installation package for installation window of the wizard shows the name of the application.
The Copy updates from storage to installation package check box is selected by default in the Select application installation package for installation window of the wizard. Kaspersky Security Center includes in the installation package all Light Agent for Windows database and module updates that have been loaded into the Kaspersky Security Center storage. After the Light Agent for Windows component has been installed, databases and modules of Light Agent for Windows are updated automatically on the virtual machine.
Go to the next step in the wizard.
The wizard downloads the files required for installation of the application to the Administration Server of Kaspersky Security Center. Wait for the download to finish.
In the Remote Installation Settings Wizard:
Specify the Light Agent components for Windows that you want to install. Components for installation are grouped into two blocks: Components for installation on server OS and Components for installation on desktop OS. Select the check boxes for the components that you want to install.
Enter the path to the installation folder, if necessary.
To import previously saved Light Agent settings into the installation package, click the Browse button and select a file with the cfg extension in the Please select a configuration file window.
You can use a configuration file only from the Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 5.0 Light Agent application version.
Go to the next step in the wizard.
In the window that opens, the wizard creates an installation package and displays a notification that the process has been completed. Click the Finish button to exit the Wizard.
The installation package that has been created is stored in the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console tree in the Additional -> Remote installation -> Installation packages folder. You can use one and the same installation package multiple times.
