You can use this method to automatically deploy Capture Agent on each domain controller in the source Active Directory domain. This method is applicable in the following scenarios only:
Supported scenario |
Prerequisites |
Scenario 1: AD domain includes either 32- or 64-bit domain controllers |
All the domain controllers must be held in a single organizational unit (for example, the built-in Domain Controllers OU). At least one group policy object must be linked to the OU holding the domain controllers (for example, the built-in Default Domain Controllers Policy Group Policy object). |
Scenario 2: AD domain includes both 32- and 64-bit domain controllers |
The domain controllers must be held in two separate organizational units, each containing domain controllers of the same bitness. At least one group policy object must be linked to each of the two organizational units. |
The next steps apply to both these scenarios.
To install Capture Agent by using Group Policy
- Save the QuickConnectCaptureAgent_x86.msi and QuickConnectCaptureAgent_x64.msi files supplied in the Quick Connect installation package to a network share accessible from each domain controller in the source Active Directory domain.
- Depending on your scenario, complete the steps in the table:
Scenario 1: AD domain includes either 32- or 64-bit domain controllers |
Scenario 2: AD domain includes both 32- and 64-bit domain controllers |

Run the following command at a command prompt to refresh the Group Policy settings:
gpupdate /force
