1 Overview
Agents are a software program that reside on a node that is being managed by Veloopti. As agents are written in C++. We use the Poco software library that means we can write the agent once and compile it to run on many different Operating Systems. In addition to this there are very few external dependencies requir Because of this it means that many of the configuration setting are generic that will work on many different OS's. This is why the windows registry is not used in favor of file based configuration settings.
