The start instruction format

es-service.exe [<switches>]

Switches

Each switch may be set in one of the following formats (formats are equivalent):

-<short_switch>[ <argument>]

or

--<long_switch>[=<argument>]

Switches may be used simultaneously including short and long versions.

warning

If an argument contains spaces, it must be enclosed in quotes.

 

All switches can be executed not dependently on permissions granted for the station on the Server. I.e. even if permissions to change the Agent settings are denied on the Server, you can change these settings via the command line switches.

Allowed switches

•Show help:

▫-?

▫--help

•Change address of the Server to which the Agent connects:

▫-e <Server>

▫--esserver=<Server>

To set several Servers at a time, you must repeat via the space character the -e switch for each Server address, e.g.:

es-service -e 192.168.1.1:12345 -e 192.168.1.2:12345 -e 10.10.1.1:1223

or

es-service --esserver=10.3.1.1:123 --esserver=10.3.1.2:123 --esserver=10.10.1.1:123

•Add the public encryption key:

▫-p <key>

▫--addpubkey=<key>

Public key specified as an argument is copied to the Agent folder (the %ProgramFiles%\DrWeb folder by default), is renamed to drwcsd.pub (if the name differs) and reread by the service. At this, previous public key file, if presented, is renamed to drwcsd.pub.old and no longer used.

All public keys which were used previously (keys transmitted from the Server and stored in the registry) are remained and used.

•Add the Server certificate:

▫-c <certificate>

▫--addcert=<certificate>

Server certificate file specified as an argument is copied to the Agent folder (the %ProgramFiles%\DrWeb folder by default), is renamed to drwcsd-certificate.pem (if the name differs) and reread by the service. At this, previous certificate file, if presented, is renamed to drwcsd-certificate.pem.old and no longer used.

All certificates which were used previously (certificates transmitted from the Server and stored in the registry) are remained and used.

•Change the Agent log level of detail:

▫-l <level>

▫--loglevel=<level>

Allowed values of log details level: err, wrn, inf, dbg.
