How to Change a Manual Product Install to be ePO managed

[User43003173]

I don't have half of those options!

Hi, could someone tell me how I can change a manually installed Endpoint Security suite of products (v10.6) to become managed by the ePO please?

You can force deploy your agent over the installation and it will become managed.

See for example: https://docs.mcafee.com/bundle/agent-5.0.6-installation-guide-epolicy-orchestrator/page/GUID-5BA4005... (look for forceinstall)

This can also be done via ePO if you add the system to the systemtree - select agent - deploy agents - then tick force install.

Hi thanks for your reply, I've only just seen it.

I'm in ePO, I don't see the options you mention, if I go to 'Systems' select the system I want to change, then click on the 'Actions' list box then select 'Agent' there's not a 'Deploy Agents' option that you mention.
