Scenario 3: User is Logged On Locally

In Scenario 3, the user logs onto the controller computer locally and is not logged onto a domain.

Working on the controller computer, you can install, re-install, and uninstall the Silk Performer Agent software on the agent computer (<agent name>) in the remote domain or workgroup (<domain name>). To install the agent software, you must specify a user who has administrator rights in the domain or workgroup where the agent computer is located (<user name>, <password>) and his or her password.

To install or re-install the agent software, execute the following command:

PerfRsManager -i -host <agent name> -user <user name>
              -domain <domain name> -log

This command sets up the agent computer so that it can be configured and rebooted from remote computers.

To re-install or remove agent software, you must know the port to which the agent software responds (<port number>). By default, the agent uses port 19200. You must also know the password by which the agent software is protected from unauthorized access, if one is in use (<password>).

To uninstall the agent software, execute the following command:

PerfRsManager -r -host <agent name> -port <port number>
              -pwdService <password> -log

If the agent software responds to the default port, you can omit the -port parameter.

The preceding commands generate log files with detailed information about the installation or uninstall process. If you do not want to generate these log files, omit the -log parameter.
