Installed Linux Agents are configured by default to run a pull from Active Directory every 60 minutes to check for any changes to Group Policy objects. This configuration is set in the appsettings.json file at usr/local/bin/agent on the Linux Agent using the “PullIntervalInMins” element.
While this configuration can be changed, modifying this file is not recommended and may involve some risk.
