Hi,
Is there anyway to initiate a Solarwinds Agent update using PowerShell? We are currently using SCCM as we like to deploy in a staged manor, but managing this solution is a pain.
thanks
Can you not use the .msi and .mst files obtained from the download agent menu and install it with this comand? msiexec /i "C:\Path\To\SolarWinds\SAM Agent\SolarWinds-Agent.msi" TRANSFORMS="C:\Path\To\\SolarWinds\SAM Agent\SolarWinds-Agent.mst" /qn
We use something similar at the moment.
Our main issue we have 2 polling servers and so have 2 packages in Solarwinds. This is to ensure polling servers arnt changed during an agent upgrade.
agent 1 --> polling server 1
agent 2 --> polling server 2
I know we could use one agent and control polling-server assignment via a GPO, but we dont want a large number of servers flipping back and forth between polling-servers after every upgrade, as we have seen some strange behaviour when this happens.
It would be great if the agent upgraded and simply left the existing polling-server, on a server, in place. Is this somehow possible?
