When reinstalling the agent, various elements are affected, like:
- Already-collected metrics
- Identification tokens that enable a reinstalled agent to report on the previously-discovered objects on the server
The following locations contain agent-related data which remains when the agent is uninstalled:
- The data folder containing the keystore
- The epops-token platform token file which is created before agent registration
Data continuity will not be affected when the data folder is deleted. This is not the case with the epops-token file. If you delete the token file, the agent will not be synchronized with the previously discovered objects upon a new installation.
