Installing the Agent on a Windows Server

Scenarios

This topic describes how to install the Agent on a Windows server.

Constraints

Windows OSs support only the Normal installation method.

Prerequisites

• Required permissions have been granted to the Agent in the current region. For details, see Granting Agent Permissions for Servers by Clicking Configure.
• You have modified DNS server addresses and added security group rules.
• An account with the administrator permissions, for example, the administrator account, is used to install the Agent. The Telescope process will not be stopped by other software after the installation.
• You have obtained the Agent installation package in .exe format.

  Table 1 Paths for obtaining the Agent installation package

  Name	Format	Path

Procedure

1. Log in to a Windows ECS as an administrator.
2. Open a browser and enter the path of the Agent installation package in the address box to download and save the installation package. For details, see Table 1.
3. Access the directory storing the installation package.
4. Open Windows PowerShell and run the following command to go to the installation package directory (for example, C:\Users\Administrator\Downloads).

   cd C:\Users\Administrator\Downloads

5. Install the Agent.

   install_amd64.exe -r eu-west-101 -u 0.2.3 -t 2.7.6 -d agent.ces.myhuaweicloud.eu -o myhuaweicloud.eu

   

   After you configure the Agent, its status is still displayed as Uninstalled because the monitoring data has not been reported yet. Wait for 3 to 5 minutes and refresh the page.
