You have successfully completed a Component Install for a Deployment Server
system. Click the Deployment Console icon on your desktop to view all the
computer resources running Deployment Agents configured for your Deployment
Server.
Each client computer requires the Deployment Agent to run as the Production Agent on
a local hard disk, which communicates with the Deployment Server and registers in the
Deployment Database. For Windows and Linux client computers, Deployment Solution
lets you push agent software to a client computer from a Deployment Console, or you
can pull the Deployment agent to the client computer from the Deployment Web
Console (or pull it from the Deployment Share).
You can install an embedded (recommended) or hidden automation partition, which
contains an Automation Agent that establishes communications with the Deployment
Server to run the deployment jobs that are assigned to the client computer.
See Install automation partition
