ACC-V Software metering - Osqueryd install script

[Richard Nelson]

Hi all,

I am working on using ACC-V (Agent Client Collector) to get data on installed software usage and metering.  Having addressed the pre-requisites I now need to install the Osquery daemon on a test laptop.  I intend to use the script provided in the ServiceNow docs.

However I'm not sure how to run it on the target device (i.e. cmd line, powershell, etc).

Has anyone else used the install script and if so could you advise?

Thanks in advance.

Answering my own question again.  It's a powershell script.  Copy and paste into a text file, rename it .ps1. Put it on the target machine and providing you have the required rights open the powershell prompt, type the file name and it should run.

What about for MacOS ad Linux. Is there way that ServiceNow recommends to install.

I don't know about Linux but the details for MacOS appear to be similar to Windows, though I have not tried to install it on a Mac yet.
