Creating a custom MSI package

If you want to create a custom MSI package, rather than using the standard wt-agent.msi package as previously documented, you can create an MSI package from the BMC Defender Agent for Windows distribution files in a variety of ways using several public domain programs. This permits the BMC Defender Agent for Windows to be remotely deployed using Microsoft SMS or some third party Windows software deployment system, including repackaging of the files and configuration data.

BMC Support can furnish the CO-WiX program, that is one method of creating custom packages. Parties interested in creating their own MSI packages should contact program support for further information on this topic.
