Set an agent name

You can assign a name to each agent. Agent management can filter on agent names, as described in Set up agent filters.

By default, the agent name is set to the agent GUID. If you plan to use the agent name in filtering, you can explicitly set it to some reasonable and readable name.

Note:

Agent names must be unique.

To configure an agent name, set the clientName attribute in deploymentclient.conf to the chosen name. For example:

CODE 
[deployment-client]
...
clientName = Fflanda-LINUX1

Restart the agent for the configuration change to take effect.
