Installing the Cloud Agent via Apple Remote Desktop (ARD)
When installing the Cloud Agent via ARD, it requires the "com.faronics.cloudagent.plist" in the same folder where the CloudAgent.pkg is run. This plist file contains the URL of the Cloud Console without which, the Cloud Agent cannot report back.
When installing using ARD, complete the following steps:
 
1. Send the Installer.zip to a folder on the remote computer (or copy both CloudAgent.pkg and com.faronics.cloudagent.plist manually to the same location).
2. Send the UNIX command after selecting the target computer(s). The command must follow the syntax:
installer -pkg <path to CloudAgent.pkg> -target <volume name>
If there are multiple target computers, all must have the same path and volume name, otherwise the UNIX command has to be sent to each computer customized with path and volume name for each of them.
Following is an example command:
installer -pkg /Users/admin/Downloads/Installer/CloudAgent.pkg -target /Volumes/10.9
