One thing to keep in mind is that the Cygwin 1.7.28 (possibly and up) breaks the agent push method… see doc id 1631508.1

Yes, I have looked at the silent agent installation, and we are using that currently. I would like to use cygwin so that we can push the agent when we are ready, and perhaps get a newer version version of the agent out there occasionally. Im not sure what the total numbers will be, but it could be quite a few.

That is a good idea for large numbers of windows hosts. How many are you talking about? Have you looked at silent installs of the 12c agent?

Since OEM 11 and Cloud Control 12c, (I think) Oracle has required that cygwin be installed on windows servers, and SSH configured properly before the Oracle agent can be pushed to the Oracle servers through grid/cloud control. Has anyone figure out a silent install for cygwin? It occurred to me that we could save some time if we could set up a distribution package for a cygwin installation for the Windows guys to install and the agent could then be pushed when we are ready to finish the configuration.
