To use the agent update and deployment (agentupdate)
utility requires three steps.
To install or update the IBM Rational Build Forge agent on multiple
computers:
- Place the agent installers in a directory on the computer where
you will run the agentupdate utility.
You
can obtain the installers from the installation media and from the
Rational Build Forge project area on the Jazz Community site at Jazz.net.
- Create an XML file to specify the computers on which to install
or update the Rational Build Forge agent.
Note: When you include login
credentials in the XML file, you specify those credentials in cleartext.
For information about encrypting the passwords, see
Running the agentupdate utility.
- Run the agentupdate command from the command
line or through the provided Rational Build Forge project.
For more information about the XML file, see Specifying target systems in an XML file.
