We deployed using client push installation through group policy. For few machines, even though we are seeing CCMSetup.exe folder, but we are not seeing smsagenthost service running in those machines.
Hi,
To deploy SCCM Agent via GPO you need to use the CCMSetup.MSI file.
I am not sure how you deployed via SCCM.
Please refer link for more details:
