Post-installation configuration of the application in automatic mode
Post-installation configuration of the application in automatic mode
You can perform post-installation configuration of the application in automatic mode.
To launch the automatic initial setup of the application, carry out the following command:
# /opt/kaspersky/kesl/bin/kesl-setup.pl --autoinstall=<initial configuration file>
where <post-installation configuration file> is a path to the configuration file that contains post-installation configuration settings. You can create this file or copy the necessary structure from the autoinstall.ini configuration file used for remote installation of the application using Kaspersky Security Center.
When the post-installation configuration script is finished and releases the console, the post-installation configuration of the application is complete.
To check the return code, execute the following command:
echo $?
If the command returns 0, the post-installation configuration of the application is completed successfully.
Kaspersky Endpoint Security protects the device only after the application databases are updated.
To correctly update application modules after the script has finished, you may need to restart the application. Check the status of updates for the application using the kesl-control --app-info command.
