Deploy Recast Agents for Right Click Tools

A Recast Agent is installed on a computer and runs Right Click Tools actions on that computer as the local system account. A Recast Agent should be deployed on each device you want to run Right Click Tools actions against. After deploying Recast Agents, you can configure them to run Right Click Tools actions or for Fast Channel Support. You can also use the same Recast Agent for Endpoint Insights and Privilege Manager. To learn more about Recast Agent uses, see the Recast Agent Overview

Prerequisites for Deploying Recast Agents: 

Deploying Agents with Application Manager

We recommend deploying Recast Agents using Application Manager. Your Right Click Tools Enterprise license alone gives you access to Application Manager to deploy Recast Agents. In the absence of Application Manager licensing, only the Recast Agent and Right Click Tools applications will be available in the AM software catalog. 

Prerequisites for Deploying Agents using Application Manager:

  • Recast Management Server is running Recast Software version 5.4 or later, as that is the version that introduced Application Manager in RMS. 
  • Required proxy permissions for Application Manager are in place

To deploy the Recast Agent application with Application Manager, complete the initial AM setup, selecting 'Recast Agent' as the application to deploy.

For a video walkthrough, see Recast Application Deployment with Application Manager on our YouTube channel.

TIP: Alternatively, you can choose to deploy Recast Agents using the Agent installer.
