Thanks Gene,
I can't imagine that this changes the probe management in adminconsole to distsrv, but I may be wrong...
I have no problems changing the value of mon_config_service, the question was about adminconsoleapp:
Where to configure what manages probe and package distribution in Admin Console
The clue is the quote from the documentation:
automated_deployment_engine: Indicates whether automated_deployment_engine or distsrv manages the probe and package distribution in Admin Console.
which indicates that one may change the behavior of adminconsole, which is exactly what I like to know about...
