Tailor the config file: /cai/agent/services/config/awservices/awservices.cfg

The awservices.cfg configuration file contains various services and agents that can be activated within Agent Technology.

Starting with CA NSM r3.0, the default awservices.cfg file delivered with Agent Technology contains only entries for the aws_orb and aws_sadmin services.

New entries are usually created automatically in the awservices.cfg file during the standard installation of agents, such as the MQSeries agent.

If you are upgrading from a previous release of Agent Technology and will not be re-installing agents, use the install_agents script file currently delivered in your /agent/services/tools directory. This script file can be used to add or remove entries in the awservices.cfg file for any agents or services currently supported on z/OS.

To add or remove entries in the awservices.cfg file

  1. Perform the procedure to Execute the agentworks.profile.
  2. Enter the install_agents command with no parameter to get a full description of the different parameters supported.

    Example: If you know you will run the exagent example agent, enter the following command:

    install_agents install exagent
