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 22.4 for BMC Helix Operations Management.

Overriding the default values

You can override the configuration variables in the PATROL Agent. By overriding the variables, you can ensure that multiple PATROL Agents have the same values for all variables, regardless of the version of the config.default file that they use.

Sending defaults

You can send a complete set of variables to the PATROL Agent to use as the defaults. This causes all variables to be saved in the configuration database as override (non-default) variables. The original defaults for the agent (read from the config.default file) are still in the configuration database but are overridden by the defaults you send.

Getting true defaults

You can get the complete set of variables to use as the defaults from the PATROL Agent. When you get the true defaults from a PATROL Agent, you get a complete set of variables for the object, including default variables and override (non-default) variables.
