      This article walks through manually adding a ZeroLock Agent to the ZeroLock Management Console.

      1. Download the new ZeroLock Agent file from the support site.
      2. Copy the downloaded file to ZeroLock Management Console.
      3. Unzip the ZeroLock Agent tar file: tar xzvf zerolockagent_<version number>_cpkg.tgz

      6. Lastly, we need to update the sha512 file to contain the information for the new agent build.
        1. Change to the assets folder: cd  ~/zerolock-server/database/assets
        2. Append to the file: cat checksums-<version number>.sha512 >> checksums.sha512 
          Command: cat checksums-3.5.16.sha512 >> checksums.sha512 

           

      7. Verify that the imported ZeroLock agent installation files are available:
        1. Navigate to the Deploy page on the ZeroLock Management Console.
        2. Click on the Advanced Setting link.
        3. In the Agent Version Dropdown, the new ZeroLock Agent version will be displayed.
