How To Integrate A Custom Altiris Deployment Agent For Linux (Adlagent) Configuration File Into A VMware or Linux Scripted Install

Article: 142

Applies to: Release 3.00 or greater

To add a custom Altiris Deployment Agent for Linux (adlagent) configuration file into a VMware or Linux scripted install:

1. Create a source configuration file (adlagent.conf) from a target server that is currently connected to the Deployment Server.
a. On the target server, modify the /opt/altiris/deployment/adlagent/conf/adlagent.conf file with your custom changes.
b. Restart adlagent using the following commands:
/etc/init.d/adlagent stop
/etc/init.d/adlagent start
c. Verify the target server is still connected to the Deployment Server.
2. Copy the source configuration file to the FTP Server under the directory, .\lib\osoem\altiris and rename it to adlagent.conf.custom.
3. Execute the scripted install job.

IMPORTANT: This custom adlagent configuration file will be used by all VMware or Linux scripted install jobs. The file must be removed or renamed after the job execution if it is not to be used by all jobs.
