When the files are extracted, they should be placed in a separate folder for each agent and version. It is recommended that they be extracted into a directory including the version number of the agent. For example: C:\SIFAgents\USPS-SIF-2-0-0

To install the agent, follow this steps: 

Upgrading

  • If a previous version of the Agent is running, stop the current running Agent prior to completing the installation steps
  • If the previous version of the Agent was installed as a Windows Service, uninstall the Service
  • SSDT recommends you install into a clean directory for each version of the Agent. Installing into a clean directory ensures that obsolete files do not remain from a prior version and allow you to revert to an earlier version if necessary.

  1. Create a directory to contain the new USAS or USPS agent . For using a pattern such as USxS-SIF-n-n-n. It is common practice to place the version specific agent directory inside a directory name /SIFAgents.  For example: C:\SIFAgents\usps-sif-2-soap-n.n.n.0-2
  2. Download the kit from SSDT download web site (as described in the Release page) and place it in the new directory
  3. If upgrading from a previous version, copy the agent.cfg and Agent.ks file from the previous install directory into the new directory. This will preserve zone and SOAP settings from the earlier configuration.
  4. From a command prompt, launch the agent standalone:

    Code Block
    languagebash
    > cd C:\SIFAgents\{installdirectory}
    > java -jar RunAgentStandalone.jar
