Installing Console

Tanium Cloud automatically handles module installations and upgrades.

Use the Tanium Console Solutions page to install Console 2.1 or later and choose automatic or manual configuration:

  • Automatic configuration with dependencies: Console is installed with any required dependencies and other selected solutions. This option is the best practice for most deployments. For more information, see Import Console with dependencies.
  • Manual configuration without dependencies: Console is installed without any required dependencies or other solutions. For more information, see Import Console without dependencies.

In Tanium Core Platform versions earlier than 7.4.2.2063, the Tanium Server automatically imports the Console workbench and Console content set after you install the server and sign in to Tanium Console for the first time.
