Command line tool

Use this command line tool to change the local configuration of a Linux Agent or to display the current configuration. You will find the drivelock-ctl tool in the installation directory of the DriveLock Linux Agent.

The following commands are available (see figure):

  • enabletracing: Enables tracing to the Drivelock.log file residing in the installation directory in the log child directory.

  • disabletracing: Disables tracing
  • updateconfig: Updates your configuration, e.g. if you have made changes to your policies. The Linux agent then immediately connects to the DES and loads the changes

  • showstatus: Shows the current status of the Linux client and informs when, for example, the DES was last contacted, which policies are assigned or which DriveLock modules are licensed (see figure)

  • setjointoken <join token>: Specify here the join token that will be set during the installation.

  • settenant: Specifies the tenant for your Linux agent
  • setserver: Specifies the DES that communicates with the Linux agent
  • recreatebootdevices: Creates a new list of currently connected USB devices that should always be allowed at boot time
  • rescanapps: Creates a new local whitelist
