Installing the Armor
...
Agent for Servers (AA) Only
If you need to install the Armor Agent and Armor Security Services one by one, Armor recommends following the specific order outlined below to utilize thebenefits of Recommendation Scans.
Recommendation Scans provide a good starting point for establishing a list of rules that you should implement for FIM and IPS. During a recommendation scan, the Armor Agent scans the operating system for installed applications, the Windows registry, open ports, and more. Recommendation Scans provide the rules and policies that will be auto applied by FIM and IPS, so auto apply features for those services must be turned on. Similarly, there is nothing for FIM and IPS to auto apply unless a Recommendation Scan is run.
If you do not want to run Recommendation Scans, please review the full list of CLI commands available here.

Troubleshooting
The Armor Agent uses the BiosUUID to identify the hardware that the agent is running on. This number is tied to your motherboard (in the case of a physical computer) but is also present in a Virtual Machine.
...
The BIOS UUID is required by the Armor Agent, to ensure uniqueness of the device. The BIOS UUID must be readable by the operating system. If the BIOS UUID is not available to the operating system please check with your provider.
