Installing the metapackage from command line

One Identity recommends using the install script that you downloaded with the rest of Safeguard Authentication Services instead of using the following steps. However, when you install vas.pkg, it installs the Safeguard Authentication Services client, the group policy client, and the dnsupdate as well by default. Using the install.sh script with the download allows you to choose individual packages to install.

To install all of the Safeguard Authentication Services packages found in the Safeguard Authentication Services metapackage

  1. Open a Terminal.app window and run the following commands

  2. Change directories to the location where you mounted the Safeguard Authentication Services.dmg:

    $ cd /Volumes/VAS-Installer

  3. Execute the command line installer with the following arguments:

    $ sudo /usr/sbin/installer -pkg VAS.mpkg -target /

    This installs all of the Safeguard Authentication Services packages contained in the Safeguard Authentication Services metapackage.

  4. Run the following command to install individual Safeguard Authentication Services components.

    $ cd /Volumes/VAS-Installer/VAS.mpkg/Contents
$ sudo /usr/sbin/installer -pkg Packages/vasclnt.pkg \ -target /

NOTE: You must install all Safeguard Authentication Services components into the root file system, so the parameter to the target command line option must be /. Also, you must have local administrator rights to run commands using the sudo utility.

Mounting and unmounting the .dmg from the command line

It is recommended that you use the install.sh script versus this process.

To mount and unmount the Safeguard Authentication Services .dmg from the command line

  1. Mount the Safeguard Authentication Services agent .dmg from the command line and run the following command:

    hdiutil attach /<path_to_dmg>/VAS-<version>.<build number>.dmg

    The .dmg contents mounts on your system, under

    /Volumes/VAS-Installer

  2. To unmount the Safeguard Authentication Services agent .dmg from the command line, run the following command:

    hdiutil detach /Volumes/VAS-Installer

Agent upgrade

To upgrade Safeguard Authentication Services, simply follow the normal installation steps for both the GUI process and the command line process. The Safeguard Authentication Services installation scripts detect when an upgrade is being performed and automatically perform the proper steps to upgrade versions.

macOS agent removal

Safeguard Authentication Services provides an uninstaller that removes the Safeguard Authentication Services packages from the system. The uninstaller is found in /Applications/Uninstall SAS n.n.n (where n.n.n indicates the product version number).

To uninstall Safeguard Authentication Services

  1. In the Finder window, navigate to /Applications.

    The uninstaller requires administrator credentials.

  2. Double click the Uninstall Safeguard Authentication Services n.n.n application (where n.n.n indicates the product version number).

    The uninstaller displays the packages that you can remove.

NOTE: When removing Safeguard Authentication Services from your system, files owned by accounts supplied by the Safeguard Authentication Services components appear as not having a valid owner since those accounts are no longer available to the system.
