start¶

Start Digital Rebar agent

When joining machines with an installed O/S into Digital Rebar, the joined system needs access to control.sh before the agent/runner can register.

SECURITY NOTE: This stage is included to provide the needed access to a machine specific control.sh. Since control.sh includes a machine access token (scoped to the specific machine), the time spent in this stage should be minimized.

This is a commplement to discover which is used by Sledgehammer for new machines without an existing operating system.

FUTURE FUNCTION: While the stage is currently limited to starting Linux systems, the stage will be expanded in the future to also start Windows, ESXi and other operating systems.
