3.12. Service Control

Service Control is ASGARD's way of deploying real-time services on endpoints. Currently there only exist the Aurora service. To use Aurora, the service controller has to be installed on an asset.

3.12.1. Service Controller Installation

To install the ASGARD Service Controller on an asset, you need to install the ASGARD Agent first. If you already have installed the ASGARD Agent and accepted the asset in your Management Center, you can use the "Install ASGARD Service Controller" playbook to deploy the service controller on an asset. Optionally you can manually download and execute the asgard2-service-controller installer from the ASGARD downloads page.

3.12.2. Service Controller Update

If an ASGARD update comes with a new service controller version, you need to update the service controller on the already rolled-out assets. You can do this using an "Update Agent" task. You can do that by either selecting one or multiple assets in the Assets view, or by creating a (scheduled) Group Task.

Note

If you don't see the Update Agent module, you need to enable Show Advanced Tasks in Settings > Advanced
