NOTE:
The target machines must have internet access to download and install bits, because Rapid
Recovery uses the web version of the Rapid Recovery Agent Installer to deploy the installation
components. If internet access is unavailable, use the Core Console to download the installer to a medium,
such as a USB drive, and then physically install the software on the machines that you want to protect. For
