NOTE: If the client already has an agent installed, the installation program will verify the version
of the agent. If the agent that you are trying to push is newer than the installed version, the
installation program offers to upgrade the agent. If the host has the current agent version
installed, then the bulk deploy will initiate protection between the AppAssure Core and agent.
