How do I perform the initial product deployment?
During the ePO Cloud guided setup, a deployment URL is provided. You need to copy the deployment URL to each individual system, and run it. You can either paste the URL into the browser or click the URL, if it is provided in an email. The deployment URL contains an installer that downloads the McAfee Agent and managed product policies to the system. This action brings the system under ePO Cloud management.


How do I customize the ePO Cloud console menu bar?
By default, the menu bar contains icons for four menu categories: Dashboards, Getting Started, Systems, and Queries & Reports. You can drag and drop icons from the cascaded menu on to the menu bar to add them. To remove icons, drag them off the menu bar.
