Manage an agent installation package

Manage Cortex XDR agent installation packages and their deployment settings in Cortex XSIAM.

You can manage agent installation packages on the Agent Installations page. To manage a specific package, right-click the agent version, and select the desired action:

• Edit the package name or description.

• Delete the installation package. Deleting an installation package does not uninstall the Cortex XDR agent software from any endpoints.

  Since Cortex XSIAM relies on the installation package ID to approve agent registration during the installation, we recommend that you don't delete the installation package of active endpoints. If you install the Cortex XDR agent from a package after you delete it, Cortex XSIAM denies the registration request leaving the agent in an unprotected state. Hiding the installation package removes it from the default list of available installation packages, and can be useful for preventing confusion within the management console main view. The hidden installation can be viewed by removing the default filter.

• Copy text to clipboard to copy the text from a specific field in the row of an installation package.

• Hide installation packages. Using the Hide option provides a quick method to filter out results based on a specific value in the table. You can also use the filters at the top of the page to build a filter from scratch. To create a persistent filter, save () it.
