The Protection Server component starts automatically when the operating system starts on the SVM and stops when the operating system is shut down.

An SVM deployed on a VMware ESXi hypervisor is started automatically after the hypervisor is turned on. The SVM may fail to start automatically if this function is not activated at the level of the hypervisor or if this hypervisor belongs to a VMware HA cluster. See VMware Knowledge Base for more details.

The Integration Server component starts automatically when the operating system starts on the device where the Integration Server is installed, and stops when the operating system is shut down.

The Light Agent component starts automatically when the operating system starts on a protected virtual machine and stops when the operating system is shut down.

Virtual machine protection is started automatically when the Light Agent and Protection Server components are started.

If license info is not relayed to the protected virtual machine, Light Agent operates in limited functionality mode.

Tasks are started in accordance with their schedule.

You can use the standard tools of the Linux operating system to start and stop Light Agent for Linux. You can start tasks manually. For more details, see the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux Help.
