Failed:
  chkconfig-1.24-1.el9.x86_64

Error: Transaction failed
ERROR: Failed to install b9agent, rolling back install

Cause

Existing McAfee installation on the system prevents the installation process from completing normally leading to rollback.

Resolution

Uninstall McAfee temporarily, install the agent and install back McAfee.
