Setting up a K2000 Relay for a Remote Site

  • Download the RSA
  • DNS and DHCP
  • Replication

Appliances

Download

From the QUEST site Download, the SDA relay will be a virtual appliance.

The OVF template for the RSA and the SDA are the same. During installation, a menu will offer to install either an RSA or a K2000.

Installation

Log into the Appliance’s console using:

  • Account: konfig
  • Password: konfig
  • Enter the IP and DNS information for the RSA Appliance

After restarting, you can log into the RSA Web interface to validate the license

  • Account: admin
  • Password: admin

Configuration

Activate Relay Mode

An Alias must be created on the DNS servers to facilitate communication between the clients and the Appliances.

  • Connect using the name or IP address of the Appliance from a web browser
  • Configure the appliance for a “Remote Site Appliance”
  • Information (serial number, password, etc. will be requested)

Time Server

  • In “Settings” \ “Control Panel” \ “Date and Time Settings”
    Specify the time server to use

DHCP Server

To deploy a master to a target PC, the workstation needs to boot from the RSA’s PXE boot environment.

Replication between the SDA and the RSA

Connection between the SDA and RSA

  • On both the K2000 and RSA, activate the KACE link from “Settings” \ “Control Panel”.
  • Select “KACE Link” and activate the connection

Repeat the process on the RSA

  • In the SDA under “Settings” \ “Control Panel”, select “Manage Linked Appliances”
  • In “New”
  • In the hostname, indicate the name of the RSA (or its IP)
  • In the connection key, indicate the certificate generated by the RSA

Repeat the process on the RSA

Synchronization Scheduling

  • Then in “Deployments” \ “Remote Sites”, In “Choose an Action”, select “New”
  • The RSA should appear (if the link between the 2 Appliances is correctly established)

You can schedule:

  • The start time of the synchronization
  • The bandwidth that will be used
  • The images that will be synchronized

Note: All drivers will be synchronized (no filter available)
