Security Manager 4.X

fix
The files that the Agent Manager copies to a computer during agent installation are stored in different directories depending on their function.

• Files associated with the service are copied from the .. \ MCS OnePoint \ OnePoint \ InstallService directory on the Agent Manager server.
  
• Files for application objects that plug into the service are copied from the  .. \ MCS OnePoint \ OnePoint \ InstallMCSApps \ <object name> directory on the Agent Manager server.
  
• Files associated with the agent object are copied from the  .. \ MCS OnePoint \ OnePoint \ InstallMCSApps \ Operations Agent directory on the Agent Manager server.

Every application, including the OnePoint service, and the agent object, has its own .INI file that tells the Agent Manager what files to install, registry changes to make, and services to configure.

NOTE: NetIQ does not recommend modifying .INI files.
