| Armor Agent Uninstallation Feature for VMs in AMP

Summary:

We have introduced a new UI feature that simplifies the uninstallation process of the Armor Agent on virtual machines (VMs). Users can now initiate the uninstallation directly from the VM management interface with just a few clicks, offering greater control and efficiency.

Details:

This update introduces an “Uninstall Armor Agent” button in the VM management UI. Users can now seamlessly remove the Armor Agent without needing to use CLI or external tools. The new feature is designed to improve the user experience by aligning with the goal of providing user-friendly, visible, and intuitive solutions.

Key Features:

  1. Uninstall Button in UI:

  • A new button labeled “Uninstall Armor Agent” has been added to the VM management interface.

  • Clicking the button triggers the uninstallation of the Armor Agent by calling the agent/uninstall API.

  1. Confirmation Prompt:

  • Upon clicking the uninstall button, a confirmation popup will appear with the message:

    • Warning: This action will remove the Armor Agent from your device. Please confirm you wish to remove the Agent.

  • If sub-agents are still running on the VM, an additional warning will be shown:

    • There are sub-agents still running on this VM, proceeding will force uninstall the agents. Do you wish to proceed?

  1. Options to Proceed:

  • Users can choose between “Yes” and “No” in the confirmation popup to proceed or cancel the uninstallation process.

  1. Additional Removal Option:

  • An option to remove the Armor Agent is also included in the hamburger menu on the infrastructure page for easier access.

Business Impact:

This enhancement allows users to efficiently manage the Armor Agent on their virtual machines, providing a more streamlined approach to uninstallation. By simplifying the process and making it accessible directly from the UI, users gain better control over their infrastructure, reducing the need for manual interventions.
