- Zerene_SangmaLevel 6Hi,
Try using setup.exe inplace of the *.msi file to run the installation. - Hao_LiuLevel 2I know setup.exe works.
How about Group Policy deployment ? There is a msi file there but not work.
I just want to use Group Policy to deploy DLOagent over dozens of laptops. - Deepali_BadaveLevel 6Hello,
We suggest you to create a Group Policy Login Script pointing to the DLO installation executable file.
Alternatively you may create an answer file to install DLO Agent via Group Policy.
================================================
The installation files for the Desktop and Laptop Option (DLO) Desktop Agent get copied when installing DLO from the Backup Exec installation CD. The share called DLOAgent automatically gets created on the media server that contains the installation files for the DLO Desktop Agent. Please refer the following technote for more information on the same:

2) Can you guild me where to find the "answer file" for install DLO agent via group policy ? - Renuka_-Level 6Hello,
For silent installation procedure please refer Page 42 of the administrator's guide on the following link.Check page 46 or the switches used for DLO installation.

- richard_watkinsLevel 3Hao yes it is possible
create a deployment package from the msi select the advanced option and add the language transform
source is \\server\dloagent\vertiaswhatever.msi
for english its 1033.mst in the dloagent share
to find out yours install dlo the manual way and find the dloagent install .log file in the %temp% for the user
this will list the .mst use for your language
works okay for me on user and computer packages
enjoy - richard_watkinsLevel 3forgot to add
don't ammend the setup.ini
I tried and it all went wierd
if you get error you need to delete all dloagent references from the registry and start agan.
mess with the registry at your own peril but it worked okay for me - Kevin_BaylorLevel 2I tried this and get the error that the database server not specified in registry. I checked the reg and no references to DLO prior to msi package install. Any idea.
- George_ParkerLevel 3We have the same problem. We managed to deploy the DLO agent via GPO/msi with the englishe language pack, but we have to edit the registry and entre the name of the DB server. Any ideas?
