Editing the agentless host configuration

Last published : Jul 06, 2026
To edit the details of an agentless host, you can use the Edit agentless configuration option.
The Advanced option lets you use privilege control software with the agentless discovery of a host. You must specify the type and location of the software. The Advanced option is optional and is required while configuring agentless host discovery for non-root users.
The edit operation for agentless hosts is asynchronous. The wizard displays that the operation has triggered the edit, but the discovery operation for the agentless host is actually in progress in the background. You must wait for the actual discovery to complete.
To perform this task, your user group must be assigned the Admin role on the Management Server perspective. The root user can also perform this task.
