Configure if you want the Kubernetes Visibility Agent Informer to create a cmdb_ci_linux_server CI for each Kubernetes node.

## Before you begin

Role required: none

## About this task

By default, the Informer creates a cmdb_ci_linux_server CI for every Kubernetes node. If this CI is redundant or interferes with other flows in your organization, you can set the associated configuration parameter to false.

## Procedure

Do one of the following:

* When using a Helm chart, in the Helm install command, set the createServerCi parameter to false:

  `--set createServerCi=false`
* When using the k8s_informer.yaml file, set the environment variable CREATE_SERVER_CI to false.
