Admin Console and Endpoint on the same machine

Can the Admin console (4.5 or 4.7) co-exist with Endpoint on the same machine? I don't want to nuke my install trying to find out, so I figured I'd ask here.

  • Hello linuxguy,

    I don't want to nuke my install

    which component is already installed? And with Admin console you refer to a remote console (i.e. the management server is elsewhere)? 

    Anyway - it's always (whether you install the management server or a remote console) SEC first and then Endpoint as SEC requires a "special" install of RMS (and it refuses to install if RMS is already present). But you only have to uninstall RMS from the endpoint.

    BTW - all consoles must be the same version

  • I meant the SEC, not admin console. I have SEC installed, and I have not yet installed Endpoint on that machine. So, are you saying that I should go ahead and install Endpoint, and that I'd only need to uninstall RMS if I had installed Endpoint first then the SEC?

  • HI,

    You can install SEC and then install the client software which is what you are doing.  Go right ahead and bootrap the machine or run the protection wizard.

    The only combinations the installers will complain are as follows;

    1  If the client software is already installed and then you install SEC.  It will complain that RMS is already installed and ask you to remove it first.

    2. When you install SUM on a machine this will also complain if you have RMS.  

    3. When you try to install a remote SEC console onto a machine with SUM already on the machine.
