Introduction

About This Documentation

This guide provides detailed, step-by-step instructions for installing the Istari Agent onto one or more host machines (VMs or physical hosts) in your enterprise. The documentation goes into depth on the deployment and configuration of the agent using standard OS management and administrative tools. The estimated installation time is 1 hour per agent.

For organizations using multiple tenants, additional configuration is required to ensure proper tenant isolation. See Agent Multi-Tenancy for detailed information on configuring agents in multi-tenant environments.

By following these instructions, you'll be able to deploy the Istari Agent within your own infrastructure. However, if you get stuck, just contact support@istaridigital.com
