Generate Windows and Linux agents

Applies to: Medulla – Agents Version: All Environment: On-Premise / Private SaaS / Shared SaaS Category: Agents / Support 
 Before generating agents for your Windows or Linux workstations, it is important to define your attachment strategy in GLPI: 
 
 Either one agent per GLPI entity, 
 Or a global agent, which will report all machines to the parent entity. 
 
 Generate an agent per entity 
 To generate a separate agent per GLPI entity: 
 generate_medulla_agent.sh all force 
 Then verify that each entity has its own agent: 
 ls /var/lib/pulse2/medulla_agent/* 
 Each entity is associated with a tag. You will find a directory for each tag containing the corresponding agents. 
 Generate a global agent 
 To generate a single agent per operating system (linked to the parent GLPI entity): 
 /var/lib/pulse2/clients/generate-pulse-agent.sh 
 Then verify the presence of the agents: 
 ls /var/lib/pulse2/clients/win/ ls /var/lib/pulse2/clients/lin/ 
 Generate an agent without GLPI inventory 
 This option requires Medulla and the agent version 5.5.2 or higher. 
 /var/lib/pulse2/clients/generate-pulse-agent.sh --disable-inventory 
 Managing entities with a global agent 
 If you are using a global agent but want to distribute machines across different GLPI entities, two options are available: 
 
 Manually move the machines in GLPI, 
 Set up automatic rules in GLPI (by subnet, name, or other criteria).
