This guide details how to deploy the Block 64 Discovery Agent MSI using NinjaOne RMM. NinjaOne allows for straightforward script-based deployment, making it easy to deploy the agent across multiple endpoints.
Important: Retrieve the Enrollment Token
Before you begin, ensure you have the unique Enrollment Token specific to your environment. This token is critical for successful agent registration and can be obtained from your Block 64 Dashboard or by contacting Block 64 Support.
Step 1: Prepare the MSI File
- Obtain the Block 64 Discovery Agent MSI file (
Discovery Agent.msi
) and ensure it’s accessible on a local or network path that NinjaOne can access.
Step 2: Create a Deployment Script in NinjaOne
- In NinjaOne, navigate to Administration > Scripting.
- Click Add Script to create a new script dedicated to deploying the MSI file.
Step 3: Write the Deployment Script
- Use either PowerShell or Command Prompt to deploy the MSI with the enrollment token.
- For PowerShell:
- For Command Prompt:
- Replace
path\to\Slingshot.msi
with the actual path to the MSI file and replace"your_token_here"
with your unique enrollment token.
⚠️ Warning: The enrollment token is unique to your environment; using an incorrect token may result in failed registration. Always verify the token before deployment.
Step 4: Save and Deploy
- Save the script, giving it a descriptive name (e.g., "Block 64 Agent Deployment").
- Navigate to the Devices tab in NinjaOne, select the devices for deployment, and apply the script by choosing Run Script.
Step 5: Monitoring Deployment
- You can monitor the deployment’s success by checking Script Results in NinjaOne.
- On each endpoint, confirm installation by locating the Block 64 Discovery Agent in Programs and Features.
Uninstallation Steps
To uninstall, create a new script in NinjaOne using the command:
Deploy the script to the relevant devices to remove the agent.
