Sophosinstall exe replaced with sophossetup exe in Sophos Central console

JustinTL

Hi all,

Clicking the Download Complete Windows Installer link under Protect Devices in our Sophos Central console now downloads a file called SophoSetup.exe. This is both for server and endpoints.  Does anyone know when this changed and when any documentation will be available about this as a search of the Sophos site so far produces no results and the document about automated installs still references sophosinstall.exe.  I assume that sophossetup.exe can still use the -q silent switch in batch files but will test this.

Thanks

Justin

    Yeah, that looks right. I tested this from 32-bit cmd line (for SCCM I test everything 32-bit) and it worked:

    SophosSetup.exe --products=intercept --quiet

    We only install InterceptX product, that's why the product= line. But --quiet worked.

    I don't know why the switches require two dashes, that seems weird to me, but whatever.

    Tested this as well, replaced sophosinstall -q in the install batch file with SophosSetup --quiet and install works as intended.  As mentioned though, would have been nice to be notified of these changes - maybe the Sophos Central Dashboard would be a good place instead of/as well as the Global Security News?  Time for a trip to https://ideas.sophos.com/ methinks....

    Thanks

    Justin
