CONFIG

Allows you to specify the file path for an ESET configuration file to use with the deployment. If the file is local to an endpoint, specify the full path (C:\config.xml). If the file is attached to the component, only specify the filename. Network file paths have limited support.

 

PASSWORD

Password to uninstall protected configurations

note

ESET Business Account (EBA) license account username, password, and public ID required. When entering the aforementioned information, separate each with a space (for example, support@domain.com password XXX-XXX-XXX). For MSP licenses, each customer license must be added individually under their site.

 

UPGRADE

If an endpoint already has ESET, the deployment process will stall. If you want to upgrade the ESET product on an endpoint, two options are provided. A force upgrade will suppress reboots during the upgrade process. A safe upgrade will allow reboots when needed.

 

UNINSTALL

Remove current ESET products.

 

DEBUG

Enable debug logging. Only enable if advised. Debugging logs are very lengthy and unnecessary unless you are experiencing issues.

Type: Boolean

Default Value: true
