How are the server and agent upgraded?
• The ESP Server is upgraded using the standard software installation mechanism (RPM or pkgadd). • Agent upgrades are handled by the ESP server. Agent upgrades are transparent to end users and can be performed on individual machines or groups of machines. Back to Top Do I need to have agents installed on every host? Agents are required only on machines on which configuration or inventory management policies will be implemented. The ESP system supports partial deployments whereby the agent machines passively detect and classify unmanaged machines. Policies can be deployed to limit communication between these unmanaged machines and the rest of your network.
