6.2 File System Access

The ZENworks Agent runs as root. This provides it with the file system access required to perform its management functions on the device.

On managed devices, do not mount the following directories over NFS: /etc, /opt, /usr, /home, /var, and /root. The ZENworks Agent (ZMD) is not designed to work with these directories mounted over NFS, so this configuration is not supported.
