Overview

This article describes SEP sesam remote installation for Windows. This feature is not provided for Linux. For installing Linux, see SEP sesam Quick Install Guide for Linux. For installing SEP sesam remotely by using CLI, see Updating SEP sesam Using CLI.

As of Beefalo V2, you can remotely install any SEP sesam package (Client, RDS, etc.) from your SEP sesam Windows Server to any Windows system by using SEP sesam GUI (once your Windows clients are added to SEP sesam environment). You may prefer to use a command line to install SEP sesam remotely. In this case, use the sm_update_client install command as described in Updating SEP sesam Using CLI as the previously used sm_remote_install command is now deprecated.

Step 1: Enable Update mode

After you have installed SEP sesam Windows Server, you can install any SEP sesam package on your Windows clients (Client, RDS, etc.) by using SEP sesam GUI Topology or Clients view. The displayed status details and the options available from the right-click menu in the Topology or Clients view depend on the selected Update mode option. The Install SEP sesam option is only available if your update mode is set up to enable the install/update feature.

By default, SEP sesam does not check, download and install updates. You can change your update mode in SEP sesam menu bar -> Configuration -> Defaults -> click the tab Install/Update and select one of the modes that enable the automatic check function. For details, see Setting preferred update mode.

Step 2: Install SEP sesam remotely

Once you have set the update mode that allows SEP sesam to check for installation and update packages, from Main Selection -> Topology or Clients right-click your selected location (for mass install) or the selected Windows client (for individual installation), and select Install SEP sesam.

Hovering over a client displays information about the installation status.
