Update Windows Sensors on Endpoints through the Command Line

You can update Carbon Black Cloud Windows sensors through the command line.

Note: Not all command line options apply to a Windows sensor update; see Windows Sensor Supported Commands for details.

Procedure

1. Sign into the endpoint.
2. Download the updated sensor file; see To download sensor kits.
3. Open an administrative command prompt.
4. Run the update command; for example:

   %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\msiexec.exe" /qN /i "C:\temp\installer_vista_win7_win8-32-2.0.4.9.msi" /L*v+ "%SYSTEMROOT%\temp\cb-installer-version.log

   Note: In this example, the L*v+ option creates a verbose log in c:\windows\temp\ that will append to any existing log rather than overwriting and replacing it.
