How do I setup a remote bamboo agent without staring the service?

[Brent Villalobos]

I want to automate setting up remote agents in Bamboo. One little sticking point is running the installation jar file as suggested on the agent admin page in Bamboo:

java -jar atlassian-bamboo-agent-installer-4.3.2.jar http://${bambooServer}/agentServer/

This line starts the agent service and I have to hit Ctrl-C to stop it so I can continue with the rest of the agent initiialization in my installation script. This prevents me from setting up multiple agents non-interactively. Is there a way I can install the agent but not have it start automatically?

Something like:

java -jar atlassian-bamboo-agent-installer-4.3.2.jar http://${bambooServer}/agentServer/ install

?
