Agent Technology Configuration › Build and Run the Example Agent (EXAGENT)

Build and Run the Example Agent (EXAGENT)

This task is optional. An example agent has been developed to help you verify that your Agent Technology services are functioning properly. This agent also serves as a model for coding your own agents. The source code for the example agent is distributed with the Agent Technology services within:

• Member EXAGENT installed in CNSMSRCV
• File exagent.c in directory /$AGENTWORKS_DIR/agents/samples/exagent

The function of the agent is to traverse the structure of a directory within the UNIX System Services zFS.

Compile and link the example agent on site before attempting to start the agent. You can compile and link either online within USS or through a batch job submission in z/OS. Select the environment you are more comfortable with, online or batch.
