OSX Installation Instructions
The distribution includes one DMG (mountable Disk Image file) that contains utilities and a separate PKG download for the install or upgrade package.
- Download the corresponding BigFix client package file to the Mac computer.
- Copy the PKG file to any directory and copy the masthead file
for your deployment into the same directory. Ensure the masthead file
is named
actionsite.afxm
. - You might optionally include a pre-defined settings file (
clientsettings.cfg
) in the install directory to create custom settings for the Mac client at installation time. - Launch the PKG installer by double-clicking the PKG file (such
as
BESAgent-9.2.xxx.x-BigFix_MacOSXxx.x.pkg
) and run through the installer. The agent starts up after the installation completes as long as the masthead file is included in the install directory.
