Upgrading Agents

SCCM

  1. Update the application with the new MSI version
  2. Redistribute content
  3. Create a new deployment or use Supersedence to replace the old version

Intune

  1. Upload the new MSI/intunewin as a new app version
  2. Set supersedence on the previous version
  3. Intune handles rollout to devices at next check-in

Compliance Reporting

SCCM

Monitor deployment status:

  1. Go to Monitoring > Deployments
  2. Find SentriKat Agent deployment
  3. View success/failure counts and per-device status

Intune

Monitor installation:

  1. Go to Apps > Monitor > App install status
  2. Select SentriKat Agent
  3. View device install status breakdown

Troubleshooting

SCCM: Content Not Available

  • Verify content is distributed to the client's distribution point
  • Check CAS.log and ContentTransferManager.log on the client

Intune: App Stuck in "Installing"

  • Check the Intune Management Extension logs on the device: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\IntuneManagementExtension\Logs\IntuneManagementExtension.log
  • Ensure the device has internet access to download the app

Agent Installed but Not Reporting

  • Verify network access to SentriKat instance
  • Check API key validity in Integrations > Agent Keys
  • Review agent logs: C:\ProgramData\SentriKat\agent.log
