Install and Reinstall Through Application

Build the Agent

Use the following procedure to build a Discovery Agent through the Virima web application.

1. Log in to Virima and go to the Discovery module.

   

2. Select the Discovery Application under which the agent will be registered.

   

3. Click Build Agent.

   

4. Choose the target platform: Windows or Linux.

   

5. Review the connection details for secure communication.

6. A download link is sent through a notification once the agent is ready.

Note: The built agent comes pre-configured with the correct server connection details. No manual configuration is required.

Install and Reinstall on a Remote Machine

Once the agent is built, you can push it to a remote machine directly from the Virima UI. There is no need to log in to the target machine.

1. Go to the Discovery Application detail page.

   

2. Click Install Agent.

   

3. Enter the IP address (or hostname) of the target machine.

   Note: Ensure that valid credentials (username and password) for the target machine are configured in Virima. These are required to connect and install the agent remotely.

   

4. To reinstall an existing agent, select the Reinstall if Exists checkbox.

5. Click Install. Virima agent installation process starts in the background.

Note: The agent is downloaded and installed (or reinstalled) on the remote machine automatically.
