Disable optional Linux kernel support package updates 
In previous agent versions, the kernel driver update process always downloaded the
latest kernel support package from the relay when an agent was restarted or the computer
rebooted. However, unless you have upgraded the kernel, the agent often does not need
to update its kernel support package. Therefore for agent 20.0.0-3067+, you can disable
optional kernel support package updates to improve performance.
Disable kernel support package updates on one computer
Procedure
- In the Server & Workload Protection console, go to Computers.
- Double-click the computer where you want to disable kernel support package updates (or select the computer and then Details).
