> Installing Microsoft Defender for Endpoint in any location other than the default install path isn't supported. On Linux, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint creates an mdatp user with random UID and GID values. If you want to control these values, create an mdatp user before installation using the /usr/sbin/nologin shell option. Here's an example: `mdatp:x:UID:GID::/home/mdatp:/usr/sbin/nologin`.
