Deleting a Software Package
We recommend that you do not delete the existing software packages because you may
accidentally delete related files from the hard disk of the server and you cannot manage
the products in Security Environment anymore.
Expand the
Software Repository
node.
The stored software packages are displayed.
Right-click the software package and select
Delete
.
The software will be deleted from the Avira SMC database.
6.2.2 Installing and Uninstalling an Avira Product
Please read the file
README.TXT
in the main directory of Avira SMC.
The installation and uninstallation of Avira products on computers in Security
Environment using Avira SMC runs protected, meaning it cannot be interrupted or
cancelled.
The installation and uninstallation of products will be executed if the concerning
computers in the Security Environment are online and SMC Agents are on.
In the case of offline computers or Agents set with
pull
mechanism, the actions and
commands (for example installing a product) are saved and automatically triggered
by the program immediately after the computers/groups go online, or the Agent
performs the synchronization. The computers will have the status for
pending
operations
: red marker on the left side and/or orange arrow.
The installation also implies the configuration of Avira products. The configuration of
installed Avira products requires knowledge of configuration parameters.
Please read and follow the configuration instructions from the Avira product’s User
Manuals before performing remote installation/configuration with Avira SMC.
Installing a product
Using Avira SMC you can simultaneously install Avira products on multiple
computers, which have the same operating system family (workstation, server,
Unix, ...). Therefore, the Security Environment virtual groups must be structured
according to configuration requirements (see
Setting the Security Environment
–
Page 26).
If the SMC Agent is not available on a computer on which you want to install a product,
the SMC Agent will be automatically installed first.
During installation, a product-specific
Install
window appears, where parameters
can be set (see
Product-specific Configuration Panels
– Page 103).
