Install Machine Agent on a Smart Agent host

This is when you are using smartagentctl to install Machine agent instead of the Agent Management UI

Perform the following steps to install Machine Agent on the same host as the Smart Agent:

Verify if the Smart Agent configuration file includes the Controller details. The Machine Agent will use the same Controller details. See Configure Smart Agent. This is required because controller-info.xml file, located in the <machine_agent_home>/conf directory, is updated based on the Controller details mentioned in the Smart Agent config.ini file.
Run the following command to install Machine Agent:
1. (If using the download portal) Run the following command:
```
sudo ./smartagentctl install machine
```
2. (If using the local directory) Download the Machine Agent zip file from the Downloads portal to the current Smart Agent directory, and then run the following command:
```
sudo ./smartagentctl install machine --install-agent-from: <path>/machine-agent.zip —download-protocol: local
```
3. (If using custom HTTP server) Run the following command:
```
sudo ./smartagentctl install machine --install-agent-from https://url-path/agent.zip --download-protocol http
```
