Switch OneAgent to non-root mode after installation

rene_lindner — Fri, 24 Feb 2023 12:10:33 GMT

Hi,

is there a way to switch OneAgent to non-root mode after installing OneAgent in standard mode. Or do I need to reinstall the OneAgent to switch to non-root mode?

Regards

Hi Rene,

you need to reinstall the OneAgent. This is because certain configuration steps related to non-root mode happen only during the installation.

Tomasz

Hi Thomas,

thanks for the qucik response.

Could you elaborate on "certain configuration steps" in a little more detail?

These concern mostly setting up certain permissions on OneAgent files, assigning file capabilities and writing specific entries to OneAgent configuration files.
