  • You will need to know the DNS name (FQDN) or IP address of the Lens Collector at your site

  • You will need administrator rights on the desktop you are installing the application onto

🛠️ Configure the repository

This step only needs to be run once to enable the 7fivefive chocolatey repository:

choco sources add -Name 7fivefive-public-prod -Source https://nuget.cloudsmith.io/7fivefive/public-prod/v3/index.json

🪄 Installing

Normal installation

  1. Install Chocolatey

  2. Open Powershell as an Administrator

  3. Run the following command. You will be prompted for the Lens Collector FQDN/IP address:

    choco upgrade 7fivefive-lens-workstation-agent
    

Silent installation

  1. Install Chocolatey

  2. Open Powershell as an Administrator

  3. Run the following command:
    Ensure you change the variables on lines 1 and 2 to match your collector's FQDN and port number.

    $CollectorFqdn = 'your.collector.fqdn'
    $CollectorPort = '8443'
    choco upgrade 7fivefive-lens-workstation-agent --params "/COLLECTORFQDN:$CollectorFqdn /COLLECTORPORT:$CollectorPort"
    

You may need to add the -y parameter to accept additional scripts and licenses during silent installs.

To specify a version use --version=2.0.6

choco install 7fivefive-lens-workstation-agent -s https://nuget.cloudsmith.io/7fivefive/public-prod/v2 -y --version=2.0.6 --params "/COLLECTORFQDN:$CollectorFqdn /COLLECTORPORT:$CollectorPort"
