InsightAgent | Changing default installation directory | Linux

Hi,

Is anybody here managed to install an InsightAgent with customized installation directory/location in Linux Assets? May I know how did you do it?

I managed to do this in when installing in windows however for linux assets there seems to be no possible way to do this.

Best Regards,

It’s not recommended to install the agent in a custom location. Doing so can break some functionality as there are hardcoded paths in various services that interact with the agent. While technically you can install it in a custom location on Windows using the graphical installer, it’s not a good idea and will cause you problems in the long run.

Sorry I can’t be more help here, but do let us know if you have any further questions.

Hi Tony,

Thanks for the confirmation and giving out an information on this.

I actually tried editing the .sh file to reflect my intended destination directory and it seems kind of rejected in the communication side of things when running the installation. So I think it really is not allowed.

Anyway thanks again!
