Carbon Black EDR (formerly Cb Response)

Issue/Introduction

Can the sensor be moved to another minion by local or server side change manually? 

Environment

  • Carbon Black EDR Server: All Versions
  • Carbon Black EDR Sensor: All Versions

Resolution

No, the sensor is assigned to a minion based on it's sensor id and the number of minions in order to load balance the system. 

A reinstallation of the sensor where the VDI feature is not being used can potentially reassign to another minion node, however this cannot be forced to a specific minion.
