Auto registration of remote agents

As a Go administrator, you can auto approve remote agents by using a shared key between the Go Agent and Go Server.

  • Add an attribute named "agentAutoRegisterKey", for e.g., agentAutoRegisterKey="388b633a88de126531afa41eff9aa69e", in the server configuration fragment.
  • On the remote Go Agent machine, create a file named "autoregister.properties" under the <agent_installation_directory>/config directory and add the following contents:
agent.auto.register.key=388b633a88de126531afa41eff9aa69e
agent.auto.register.resources=ant,java
agent.auto.register.environments=QA
  • Now, bringing up the remote agent should automatically register with the Go Server without the administrator having to 'Enable' the newly added agent.
