azcmagent extenstion list command stops and disables Extension Service - a new undocumented feature?

Question

Hi,

I've multiple machines which are running azcmagent v1.44.02748.1755.

When I run azcmagent extenstion list command the Agent stops and disables Extension Service.

Also, AZCM0072 exit code is not explained in the troubleshooting link.

 

I doubt list command should disable the Extension Service.

Is this a new Agent feature? :)

EDIT: The issue is also happening on the latest v1.45 Agent version (v1.45.02769.1796)

Answer 1

In this version 1.47.02843.1892 It starts the agent back up after listing all the extensions used.
