Agent Configuration

The Trident Agent Configuration file contains configuration details for Trident. It is used for all Trident commands. The Agent Configuration file path must be /etc/trident/trident.conf.

In most cases, the default values of Agent Configuration are sufficient and should not need to be changed.

Setting Custom Datastore Path​

By default, Trident will use /var/lib/trident/datastore.sqlite as the path for the datastore. To configure a non-default path, the Agent Configuration file must contain a line defining the path like this:

DatastorePath=/special/path/to/my-datastore.sqlite

The datastore path cannot be hosted on an A/B volume pair and must be an absolute path.
