Cloud Agent Configuration

The Cloud Agent Configuration Tool gives you many options for configuring Cloud Agent after installation. It is available at /usr/local/qualys/cloud-agent/qualys-cloud-agent.sh.

The Cloud Agent configuration tool allows you to:

• Provision agents
• Configure logs: set a custom log level and log file path
• Enable Sudo to run all data collection commands
• Configure the daemon to run as a specific user and group
• Change the ActivationID, CustomerID, and platform configuration

The Cloud Agent automatically implements the changes made through the configuration tool, you do not have to restart the Cloud Agent or agent host to apply these changes.
