Windows Agent Deployment via RMM & MDM

Nodeware Agents are designed for mass deployment via management tools, RMM & MDM, and support silent, command line installation without a reboot.

Download NodewareAgentSetup.msi here

PowerShell Installation

Download PowerShell script here

The PowerShell script above can be adapted for use in deployment. It includes a direct download of the installation file to ensure the latest version is used.

You must provide a customer ID as the first argument or install will fail. It is recommended to set $customerID to a parameter to allow the same deployment script to be used with multiple customers.

ConnectWise RMM syntax example:

$customerID = '@customerID@'

Datto RMM syntax example:

$customerID = $env:customerID

Microsoft Intune 

For Intune specific instructions, see this knowledge base article.

Command Line Installation

You may specify the customer ID as a command line argument, allowing one package to be used across multiple accounts. Find the customer ID as described above and substitute it in the following command.

msiexec.exe /i {NEWFILENAME}.msi /q CUSTOMERID=XXXXXX

This is also required for certain MDM and RMM tools that rename files to avoid collisions, as the MSI filename can be whatever the resulting deployment produces.

Troubleshooting

If your installation fails, you can run this command from an elevated command prompt to generate log files. Create a support ticket by clicking Support at the bottom right of this page. Include the log files in the ticket.

Replace the customer ID as described previously and substitute the installation directory of your choice.

msiexec.exe /lxv* c:\foo\install.log /i NodewareAgentSetup.msi CUSTOMERID=XXXXXXX

Uninstall an Agent

The uninstall command is below, substitute the filename as appropriate.

msiexec.exe /x NodewareAgentSetup.XXXXXXX.msi /q
