Cmk-agent-ctl howto?

Troubleshooting

cmk-agent-ctl seems to work fine. (output below)

cmk-agent-ctl status
Version: 2.1.0p24
Agent socket: operational
IP allowlist: any

Connection: p01.company.com:8002/pr1

Registration state: operational
Host name: p01

Now my question is how do update my agents? In the past I simply registered my hosts with cmk-update-agent register
and the update worked fine. Now I get the following error:

Version: 2.1.0p24, OS: linux, TLS is not activated on monitored host (see details), Update error: HTTPSConnectionPool and the update fails (!)

So my question is how can I update in the new mode without falling back into any legacy mode. I simply want to use the new mode and no legacy mode. Can I still automatically update the agents??

I am really confused about the documentation from tribe29. It seems to me as if there is a mixture in between legacy and new client.

What’s confusing here is that cmk-agent-ctl just handles registration of the Agent Controller to the Receiver (for TLS encrypted transport of monitoring data). To register for the Agent Updater you still have to use cmk-update-agent register.

We are currently in the process to check how we can handle both tasks with a unified command in the future.
