Agent Warm Start

When integrated with CA Server Automation, the SystemEDGE agent can implement a deployed configuration file without requiring a cold restart. Instead, receiving configuration changes from CA Server Automation triggers a warm start, where the agent can implement changes while running. When performing a warm start, the agent does not have to drop and rebind to interfaces, reestablish OID variables, or restart AIMs, enabling faster and less resource intensive configuration.

For more information about deploying runtime configuration changes through CA Server Automation, see the CA Server Automation Administration Guide.
