You are prompted to select Multicast options to identify a Deployment Server to
manage the current client computer, or you can select a specific Deployment
Server by setting the Multicast option to false and adding the IP address of the
required Deployment Server.
3. After editing the configuration file, restart the Deployment Agent for Linux.
To start and stop the Deployment Agent for Linux, enter the full path or browse to
the
/etc/rc.d/init.d
directory (with administrator/root rights). You can use
either the
adlagent stop
and
adlagent start
commands, or only the
adlagent restart
command. You can also use the Package Manager installed
with Linux to restart the Deployment Agent for Linux.
By stopping and starting the Deployment Agent for Linux, the service updates the
changes made in the
adlagent
configuration file.
You can now view the Linux managed computer from a Deployment Console.
See Installing Deployment Solution agents on page 350.
Installing the automation agent
After Deployment Server has detected a managed computer through the Deployment
Agent in a production environment, you can install an
Automation Partition from the
Computers pane.
Here are some other ways to create and install an Automation Agent, which is saved in
an embedded (recommended) or hidden partition on the client computer’s hard disk.

For Deployment Solution systems running the PXE Server, create boot menu options
from the PXE Configuration Utility, using one of the following methods:
Boot Disk
Creator, Direct from floppy , or User Specified . See PXE Configuration Utility
Help .

To install an Automation Partition you can create a Microsoft Install Package (MSI)
and deploy it using a job from the console. You can also create floppy disks,
bootable CDs with an ISO image, or bootable USB devices. See
Boot Disk Creator
Help. See Distributing software on page 175.

Managing licenses
From the Deployment Console, you can find the number of licenses used, detect an
expired license, or apply a license to a client computer. Although you can install multiple
Deployment Servers, licensing is based on the number of managed client computers.
The Deployment Server system also provides the license utility to install or update
regular licenses, or to add licenses to computers installed with Deployment Solution.
This utility shows the license status, installs a new license, and adds additional licenses.
