Configure Warm Start Discovery

When managing the SystemEDGE agent with CA Virtual Assurance, the agent performs a warm start when you update its configuration through the CA Virtual Assurance manager. The warm start lets the agent implement changes without requiring a full restart. By default, when an agent warm start occurs, the agent does not re-discover all devices, because this can take a long time if you are managing a system with many devices. However, you can enable this discovery to re-discover all devices after a warm start.

To enable warm start discovery, comment out the following line in the sysedge.cf file by adding a pound sign (#) character as follows:

# no_warmstart_discovery

The warm start functionality only applies to agents in managed mode through CA Virtual Assurance. For more information, see the CA Virtual Assurance Administration Guide.
