Setting a value of MiscellaneousAgents is not supported.

The AgentType property can be retrieved only by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Distributor or by members of the replmonitor fixed database role.

The AgentType property can be set only by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Distributor when a new profile is being created on the server.
