Verify Agent Technology Installation

Once your Agent Technology z/OS services have successfully started, perform these steps.

To verify that the Agent Technology services are running properly

1. Check on the state of the AT Services. To do this, within OMVS:
   1. Issue the following command:

      	. agentworks.profile
      

      Note: Do not enclose this command in quotes and do not forget the period and space before the actual invocation of the agentworks.profile script.

   2. Issue the following command:

      	awservices list
      

      The first two lines of the report produced should read:

      	RUNNING    aws_orb:aws_orb
      	RUNNING    aws_sadmin:aws_sadmin
      

      Note: You may see several other services and agents, or both, listed in the report with a status of Stopped. This is normal.

2. Check the status of the AT services ports. To do this, within OMVS:
   1. Issue the following command:

      	onetstat
      

   2. The report produced should list all of the AT ports (see the Overview section earlier in this chapter) and show them in the appropriate status, as follows:

      	Listen - For all TCP/IP socket ports
      	UDP - For the SNMP listener port (normally 6665)
      

3. Ensure all of the Agent/Services MIBS have been loaded into the Object Store. To do this, within OMVS:
   1. Issue the following command:

      	. agentworks.profile
      

   2. Issue the following command:

      	agentctrl -m
      

      The report produced must show the awsAdmin MIB, as well as at least one other Agent MIB. For example:

      	<awsAdmin>      is registered
      	<caiDatacom>    is registered
      	<caiDb2mvs>     is registered
      	<caiIDMS>       is registered
      	<caiSysAgtzOS>  is registered
      	<caiSysAgtCics> is registered
      	<caiSysAgtMqs>  is registered
      	<caiSysAgtMvs>  is registered
      

4. If you encounter problems, review the Services log files within the AT zFS (under directory $AGENTWORKS_DIR/services/var/log) to help diagnose the problem. These files are overwritten each time the AT services are started.
