  • Creates Schedule task to run on boot that disable itself

Register. This will work calling ALB or calling the server behind ALB directly.

De-register

Deleting machine 'SERVER-1-PROD' from the Octopus Server...
The Octopus Server is still trusted. If you wish to remove trust for this Octopus Server, use 'Tentacle.exe configure --remove-trust=...'

Certificate work around when running without a profile eg. Schedule Tasks. It was not needed in my case.

Certificat ework around when running witout a profile eg. Schedule Tasks
.\tentacle.exe new-certificate -e tentacle.crt.base64
.\Tentacle.exe import-certificate --instance $env:computername  -f .\tentacle.crt.base64 --console
Importing the certificate stored in .\tentacle.crt.base64...
Certificate with thumbprint 26********76 imported successfully.
