How can I change config.ini settings on an adopted Unix machine?Discussion
Use the configuration ini import feature of the mgsconfig tool. For example, let us say we wish to disable network sense in an adopted inventory agent. We could:
1. Create the following content in a temporary file on the Unix file
system (for example, "/var/tmp/tempconfig.ini"):
[ManageSoft\Launcher\CurrentVersion]
NetworkSense=False
[ManageSoft\NetSelector\CurrentVersion]
SelectorAlgorithm=MgsSubnetMatch(,false)
2. Import the configuration change by running the following command on
the Unix machine (substitute your temporary file name):
/opt/managesoft/bin/mgsconfig -i /var/tmp/tempconfig.ini
3. Remove the temporary file.
Inspecting the /var/opt/managesoft/etc/config.ini should show that the settings in your temporary ini file have been applied to the config.ini.
