You may see an issue where your linux agent shows as 'disconnected' in The Centrify AuditManager Console. Or, you may want to connect to a different DirectAudit Installation. The steps are below:

1. Login to the linux agent as root or run a terminal shell with root permissions.

2. Run the following command to see which installation you are connected to:

# dainfo


In the below example, you can see we are connected to DefaultInstallation

3. To connect to a different installation, run this command:

# dacontrol --installation <Installation Name>


For this example, we connected to DefaultInstallation1

4. Run the following commands to restart the DirectAudit agent:

# /etc/init.d/centrifyda stop
# /etc/init.d/centrifyda start


5. Now run this command to show the new installation you are connected to:

# dainfo


Now you can see we are connected to DefaultInstallation1
