Mac Clients
You can optionally use the clientsettings.cfg
file to create custom settings on
a Mac Client, for example to assign the new Client to a specific parent relay. The
clientsettings.cfg
file must be available in the same directory as the PKG file and
the actionsite.afmx
file.
To set the relay, add the following lines to the
clientsettings.cfg
file:
IP:http://besrelayserver.domain.com:52311/bfmirror/downloads/
__RelayServer1=http://relay.domain.com:52311/bfmirror/downloads/
Note: You
can add other client settings at the time of installation of the new client, in additional to the
relay settings, by including a line for each client setting to be set during client
installation.
In the Finder, right-click BESAgent-9.2.xxx.x-BigFix_MacOSXxx.x.pkg
file
and choose Show Package Contents
to navigate within
the package.
The installation package is created with the BESAgent Installer
Builder app, which builds it into a read-only compressed .dmg
file.
If you need to edit the package, copy it out of this read-only disk
image.
Note: The QnA executable is also included in the client installation package. On Macintosh clients,
to use it you must launch the Terminal program and
run:
{sudo} /Library/BESAgent/BESAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/QnA
The sudo command
is optional but some inspectors run only if you are Super User (root).
