If you are using the Automated Installer for installing Agents in a silent mode, you can add to the installation commands an Agent option, which will assign the new Agent to a certain Build Group upon its launch.

Note: For more information about using the Automated Installer, see: Silent Installation

The installation option that allows you to assign an Agent to a Build group is Group={Group name}. This is an Agent option, and it is used as follows: /Agent:Group={Group name}

The Group={Group name} option is optional. If it is not used, the new Agent will be automatically assigned to the Default Build Group. If this option is used, but the value of the {Group name} is empty or refers to a non-existent Build Group, the Agent will be assigned to the Default Build Group as well.

> To assign an Agent to a Build Group via the Automated Installer:

  • Use the following command syntax, and add the name of the Build Group to which you want to assign the Agent as the {Group name} value:

    Code Block
    IBSetupConsole.exe /Install /Components=Agent /Coordinator={COORDINATORNAME} 
/Agent:Group={Group name} [General Options] [Agent Options]

    For example:

    Code Block
    IBSetupConsole.exe /Install /Components=Agent /Coordinator=win10-1 /Agent:Group=QA

You can also use the Group={Group name} option while installing a Coordinator together with an Agent.

> To install both a Coordinator and an Agent with an assignment to a Build Group:

  • Use the following command syntax, and add the name of the Build Group to which you want to assign the Agent as the {Group name} value:

    Code Block
    IBSetupConsole.exe /Install /Components=Coordinator,Agent 
/Coordinator={COORDINATORNAME} /Agent:Group={Group name}  
[General Options] [Agent Options]

You can also use the Group={Group name} option while allocating a Single-Use VM license to an Agent during its installation.

> To install an Agent with a Single-Use VM license and an assignment to a Build Group:

  • Use the following command syntax, and add the name of the Build Group to which you want to assign the Agent as the {Group name} value:

    Code Block
    IBSetupConsole.exe /Install /Components=Agent,oneuse 
/Coordinator={COORDINATORNAME} /Agent:Group={Group name}  
[General Options] [Agent Options]
