Agent ≤8.90

Access: backup.securepoint.cloud Dashboard


Windows-Setup

Installation using Windows Setup:

  • Download the required agent from the Download Area of the Dashboard.
  • Run the installation file on the computer for which the backup is to be set up.
  • Custom setup selection chosen
  • Selection of the account that will be used for logging in the agent services
  • If necessary, additional plug-ins can be installed.
     The image plug-in requires a reboot.
  • Enter the user name in email format and the password of a portal user
     The computer is assigned to the end user site to which the user is also assigned.
  • If necessary, set a Default encryption password.
     Only for sites where Automatic Agent Configuration has been enabled.
  • install



Script-based / Silent

The agent can also be installed in silent mode. This is useful if the agent is to be rolled out automatically on multiple systems.

  • The parameters must be enclosed in quotes and are separated only by spaces.


  • Since the password is passed in clear text, after installation it is imperative to remove the script from the computer and/or the user from the portal.
     If the user is removed, initially only an administrator can manage the computer until it is assigned to another user!

    Silent agent registration

    If an agent is to be registered in another subsite, for example, the following entry in the command line is sufficient to re-register the agent at the portal:
    C:\Program Files\Securepoint Unified Backup\Agent\buagent.exe" -cmdline --reregister --amplogin backupkunde@firmaXYZ.de --amppassword USERPW --ampserver "backup.securepoint.cloud" --ampport 8086

    The Securepoint Unified Backup services must then be restarted once.
    To do this, start PowerShell with administrator privileges and enter the following:
    Get-Service -DisplayName "Securepoint Unified Backup*" | Restart-Service
