8 Agent Configuration
This topic includes the following sections
Configuring Advanced Management Console Agent Proxy Settings
You can set the Advanced Management Console agent proxy host name and port in the Agents Download sub tab of the Configuration tab. The Agents Download sub tab consists of downloadable agent bundle files (zip files).
- In the Advanced Management Console UI, click the Configuration tab.
- Click Agents Download.
- Click Edit to display the Configure AMC Agent Proxy Settings dialog.
- Enter the following details for the agent to connect to the Advanced Management Console server:
- Agent Proxy Host Name: Specify a proxy server host name.
- Agent Proxy Port: Specify a proxy server port number.
Note:
Clearing both the Agent Proxy host name and port deletes an existing proxy setting. If there is no proxy, then the proxy host name and port details are not needed.
Configuring Agent Intervals
In the Advanced Management Console web user interface, you can set the time between regular agent actions to different values. The Advanced Management Console checks for updates to these values. When you modify the agent intervals in the Advanced Management Console UI and save the changes, a command is created with the information of the new intervals. Agents then fetch this command the next time they check for new commands and update themselves with new interval values and the new values replace the old interval values.
To configure the agent intervals:
-
In the Advanced Management Console UI, click the Configuration tab.
-
Click Agent Settings.
-
Click Edit to display the Agent Actions Interval dialog.
-
Edit any of the following values. You can either edit all of them or just the ones that you want to:
- JUT Processing Interval
