The script in this project serves as a workaround for automating the download of the VSPC (Veeam Service Provider Console) Management Agent installation files for Windows, Linux, & MacOS operating systems.
The expectation is that this script can be installed on a single server and be used to download the VSPC Mgmt Agent install file saving it to a shared location. Then, the files can be leveraged by custom automation when performing unattended installs.
This project was tested using an Ubuntu 20.04 headless server (no GUI). While other operating systems should work, they have not been tested and might require minor changes.
- Veeam Service Provider Console v6
- Python 3.9
- selenium
- argparse
- Mozilla Firefox
- GeckoDriver - WebDriver for Firefox
