Chase,
I asked your question internally and got a couple useful responses:
Option 1: Use the 'complete' installer (that will install the S-TAP along with the GIM at the same time) using the deploy folder functionality. It works well on Windows.
Option 2: Scripting using APIs - identify the platform (DB server) and then start STAP installation (module) and customize configuration:
gim_assign_bundle_or_module_to_client_by_version
gim_assign_latest_bundle_or_module_to_client
gim_cancel_install
gim_cancel_uninstall
gim_get_available_modules
gim_get_client_last_event
gim_get_global_param
gim_get_modules_running_status
gim_list_bundles
gim_list_client_modules
gim_list_client_params
gim_list_mandatory_params
gim_list_registered_clients
gim_list_unused_bundles
gim_load_package
gim_remote_activation
gim_remove_bundle
gim_reset_client
gim_schedule_install
gim_schedule_uninstall
gim_set_diagnostics
gim_set_global_param
gim_unassign_client_module
gim_uninstall_module
gim_update_client_params

Subject: S-TAP Install Automation
We are looking to improve our Windows deployment of the S-TAP. Currently the GIM is automatically installed using the executable. The S-TAP is then installed by the Guardium Admin via the GIM Server. This leaves some intermittent time where the server admins cannot proceed with server completion until the Guardium Admin has time to perform the install. Has anyone developed a process where the GIM managed S-TAP is automatically installed? My thoughts were that there maybe a guardapi or other method to have this done.
