Installation

Introduction

The Agent Client is an essential component of our TERRA Management System and is installed on the server systems to enable centralized administration and control. Installation is performed using our installer, which is available under the "TERRA Management" menu item in the Technical Center. This guide describes the installation process in detail, both manually and automatically (silent installation).

Requirements

Before you begin the installation, ensure that the following requirements are met:

• The server system has access to the Technical Center.
• You have a valid token to register the server.
• Administrator rights are required for installation.

Download the installer

The installer can be obtained directly from the Technical Center. Follow these steps:

1. Log in to the Technical Center.
2. Navigate to TERRA Management -> Download TERRA Management Agent.
3. Download the latest version of the installer.

Receiving the token

The installation process requires a token to identify and assign the server system.
The token has the following format, for example: 49dd334bc63aea36383a8f4a96155fe8ca284923ea02c095d8d9a659c6b028f4

This token is generated in the TERRA Management System, assigned to a customer, and is valid for one year. Please note the token for installation and use it within this time.

Token management will be available soon.

Manual Installation

To run the installer manually, follow these steps:

1. Double-click the downloaded setup.exe file.
2. Follow the instructions in the installation wizard.
3. Enter the received token when prompted.
4. Click Install and wait for the process to complete.
5. After the installation is complete, no system reboot is required.

Silent Installation

If you want to perform the installation without user interaction, you can do so via the command line. Use the following command:
".\TERRA Management Agent.exe" /silent /v" /quiet /norestart TCTOKEN=YOURTOKEN"

Replace YOURTOKEN with the actual token you received.

Example for a complete installation: ".\TERRA Management Agent.exe" /silent /v"/quiet /norestart TCTOKEN=35eca490b92fd93...

Explanation of the parameters:

• /silent - Runs the installation in the background.
  
• /v"/quiet" - Prevents the installation wizard from appearing.
  
• /v"/norestart" - Prevents the system from automatically rebooting.
  
• /v"TCTOKEN="YOURTOKEN"" - Passes the token for server assignment.

Verifying the installation

After successful installation, you can check whether the Agent Client has been registered correctly:

1. Open the command line and enter the following command: sc query "AgentService"
2. If the service is running, an output with STATE: RUNNING should appear.
3. Alternatively, you can log in to the Technical Center and check the system in the list of registered devices.

Troubleshooting

If you experience problems during installation, please note the following:

• Installer does not start:
  
  • Ensure the installer is running with administrator privileges.
    
  • Check that the token is still valid and has not expired.
    
• Error processing token:
  
  • Check that the token was entered correctly.
    
  • Check that the token is still valid and has not expired.
    
• Agent Client is not registered:
  
  • Ensure the system has an internet connection.
    
  • Check if firewall settings are blocking communication.
