This article describes how to create and configure a Custom SVM Agent Uninstall package that can be deployed to domain clients using WSUS/SCCM, to uninstall the SVM Local Agent installed on them.
Instructions
- Log into your Software Vulnerability Manager account, and go to Patching > Agent Deployment.
Select Create Software Vulnerability Manager Agent Package. - Select the Import XML button and import the XML template you have downloaded from this thread.
The file you are uploading contains the required file to perform the uninstallation on the clients.
- Enable the checkbox Use Flexera Custom Naming if you will be deploying updates through System Center Configuration Manager.
- Continue forward with Next until you reach the last configuration page.
Use the WSUS radio button under Publish Options even when you are working with SCCM.
- Select Publish to deliver the package to the original WSUS Server (SUP) package repository (default).
Next, depending on whether you are working with WSUS or SCCM, do the following:
WSUS:
- Navigate to Patching > Available.
- Find your published package and "Decline" if auto-approved. This can happen because of WSUS rules.
- Right-click the package again, then "Approve" it for the desired recipients.
- After the package is approved, clients will connect to WSUS and always get it as long as they are approved.
Once the package is downloaded on the client, it will run once and wipe the Agent. Then it will be cleaned up by WSUS automatically at the next reboot. It will be set by WUA as installed (not required).
SCCM
- Open the SCCM Console, then naviagte Software Library > Software Updates > All Software Updates.
- Use the Run Synchronization feature to find available Software Updates. Wait until it's complete.
- Search 'Flexera' in the list to filter out your third-party packages.
Once it appears, take the usual SCCM repackaging steps as you would take for MS update deployments.
Mark Package as AlwaysInstallable setting
