Downloads
This section details the steps needed to allow users to download Data Guardian for Windows client from your Security Management
Server.
1. On the Security Management Server, navigate to <Security Server install dir>\webapps\root\cloudweb\brand\dell\resources and
open messages.properties with a text editor.
2. Ensure that the entries are as follows:
download.deviceWin.mode=remote
download.deviceWin.local.filename.32=DataGuardian_32bit_setup.exe
download.deviceWin.local.filename.64=DataGuardian_64bit_setup.exe
3. Edit the entries to the following
download.deviceWin.remote.link.32=https://<YOUR HOST URL>:<PORT>/cloudweb/download/DataGuardian_32bit_setup.exe
download.deviceWin.remote.link.64=https://<YOUR HOST URL>:<PORT>/cloudweb/download/DataGuardian_64bit_setup.exe
4. Save and close the file.
5. Go to <Security Server install dir> and create a new folder under it named Download (Security Server\Download).
6. Within the Download folder, create another new folder and name it cloudweb (Security Server\Download\cloudweb).
7. Add the 64-bit and the 32-bit setup files for Data Guardian to the cloudweb folder and, optionally, rename them, for example, to
DataGuardian64.exe and DataGuardian32.exe, respectively.
These are user-defined but must match the file names in the versions.xml file.
8. Restart the Security Server for the changes to take effect.
Configure the Security Management Server for Automatic Download
of the Windows
Data Guardian Client (Optional)
For automatic downloads, the versions.xml file and binaries must be in the same location. The location must be accessible by the client, so
it could be IIS or you could use the Security Server\Download\cloudweb folder you created. If using the cloudweb folder, follow this
sample configuration.
1. Navigate to the Security Server\Download\cloudweb folder. (See step 6 in Configure the Security Server to Allow Data Guardian
Client Downloads.)
2. Create a folder under it named DataGuardianUpdate.
