Deploying McAfee ePO agent using Casper

Jamf has an excellent KB article on how to deploy the McAfee ePO agent.

However, if you have already installed the unmanaged client you will need to remove the agent before reinstalling.

1)  Uninstall the existing (stand-alone) agent using Casper Remote by running the following command:

/Library/McAfee/cma/uninstall.sh

2)  Install the agent using Casper Remote and the following command:

 /Library/Application\ Support/McAfee/install.sh -i

If you do not first uninstall the agent you will receive the following error:

"An higher or same version of the agent is already installed installer: Error - The installed version of the agent is already greater than or equal to this version. Installation cannot continue"
