PSADK Package: EM-Agent
To enable the Matrix42 Enterprise Manager (EM) Agent, the easiest way is to deploy the EM-Agent with SCCM (as part of the OSD Tasksequence for initial deployment and as deployment on a collection for update). The fowolling PSADK-based package will support yourself to deploy the EM-Agent in your environment.
Architecture
The package detects which Architecture-Binaries are included in the package and install the correct binary version regarding to the detected Client-architecture. With this it is theoretically possible to create on package for both architectures. I recommend to create 2 dedicated packages or deployment-types to prevent downloading the EM-Binaries two times, for every client installation.
Uninstall old versions
This package tries to uninstall all detected versions (6.6, 7.3, 19.0.2, 19.0.3, 20.0.0) of the Enterprise Manager Agent that are installed on the local machine and installs the EM-Agent in version 20.0.0 or higher. It automatically detects the Plattform
