I’m sorry, my wrong. By this command pmm-client should be completely uninstalled. Can you show result of “systemctl status pmm-agent”

thanks @Anton_Bystrov i have checked and it seems it running with the docker.

I have tested using stoping docker on node and it seems pmm is runing with docker client
