You can activate the agent on the node over the net (without the GUI and

Activate the Node Using the ITO GUI:

After the node with the pre-installed agent is connected to the network,
use this procedure to activate and register the managed node.

1. Add the pre-installed node(s) to the

ITO Node Bank

using the menu

sequence:

Actions:Node->Add

.

2. Add the node to an ITO node group. The easiest way to do this is to

drag and drop it onto a node group in the

ITO Node Group Bank

window

.

3. Distribute the ITO configuration to the node:

a. Select

Actions:Agents->Install

from the menu bar of the

ITO Node Bank

. The

Install /Update ITO Software and

Configuration

window opens.

b. Select all components and click

[OK]

.

NOTE

Do not check

[Force Update]

re-install the agent.

If the agent is pre-installed on the node, the management server will
activate the node, and install the selected components. Note that if
the agent software is not pre-installed, this action will install the
agent.

4. Execute the following command to verify that the control, message,

and action agents are all running on the managed node:
