When you deploy SystemEDGE (or install it on a standalone basis), you can specify to run the agent in managed mode. In managed mode, the agent is managed by the CA Server Automation Manager node from which you deployed the agent (or a Manager node that you specify in a standalone agent installation). Operating the agent in managed mode enables all CA Server Automation agent management functionality, such as remote configuration and advanced visualization from the CA Server Automation user interface. Managed mode also establishes CA Server Automation as the primary source of agent configuration. If an agent in managed mode is modified outside of CA Server Automation, the CA Server Automation administrator can block or overwrite the change.
You can also operate SystemEDGE in legacy mode, or without a CA Server Automation Manager controlling its configuration. An agent running in legacy mode is not restricted to legacy monitors, or monitors that do not maintain and calculate state.
When deploying an agent from CA Server Automation, you specify whether to run it in managed mode in the package wrapper settings using the 'Run in Managed Mode' check box. When installing an agent separately from CA Server Automation, provide a CA Server Automation Manager node for the agent to run in managed mode.
