Helix documentation is moving from docs.bmc.com to docs.helixops.ai

Key pages will redirect to the new domain on May 26, 2026. However, some legacy documentation links will not be redirected. 

In-product help links might not work after migration as we transition and update them within the product.

Information
Important This documentation space contains information about PATROL Agents when deployed in a TrueSight Operations Management environment. If you are a BMC Helix Operations Management user, see PATROL Agent 21.02 for BMC Helix Operations Management.

Disabling applications

The PATROL Agent allows you to assign a disabled status to an application. This status prevents the PATROL Agent from loading that application's KM and monitoring it.

PATROL allows you to disable applications as follows:

  • By name — KM file name, without .km extension
  • By architecture — operating system and platform
  • By exclusion — loading only preloaded KMs
Warning

Note

Disabling an application even prevents the PATROL Developer Console from downloading the KM into the memory of the Agent.
