Describe your problem

Hi,

is there a way to update the GLPI Agent via a GLPI Deploy Task of a package? We are getting an error, when trying since the installation of the new GLPI Agent is terminating the run of the old GLPI Agent.

Regards,
Andreas

Hi @AndiMb

this is probably possible if you:

1. copy the MSI installer to a dedicated place
2. in place of start the install immediatly, use schtasks command to schedule the installation few minutes later so the current Deploy task as the time to be finished from the GLPI view.
