  • via an install dialog
  • the AC_BUSINESS_SERVICES property (system mode installs)
  • the -ac_business_services command line option (user mode installs)

Note that the Agent is only joined to the specified business services upon initial registration with Universal Controller. Existing agents can only be assigned to business services from the Controller's Agent Details panel.
