RepCLI is a command line tool that superusers can use to locally manage certain Linux sensor functions.

RepCLI is included in Linux sensors beginning with version 2.13. RepCLI is located in /opt/carbonblack/psc/bin/.

To run RepCLI, launch a terminal and navigate to the /opt/carbonblack/psc/bin/ directory. Run RepCLI commands within this terminal; for example, $ sudo ./repcli status. You can get help for a particular command by running the help command and providing the name of that command as an argument. For example: $ sudo ./repcli help status.

The following RepCLI commands are available for Linux sensors:
