AGENT Statement—Specify the Agent Where the Micro Focus Job Runs

The AGENT statement identifies the distributed platform where the Micro Focus job runs under the control of the agent.

Supported Job Types

This statement is required for the Micro Focus job type.

Syntax

This statement has the following format:

AGENT agent_name [ROUTING|NOROUTING]

agent_name

Specifies a valid agent name as defined in the agent definition.

Limits: Up to 16 characters; the first character must be a letter. The remaining characters can be any combination of alphanumeric characters, including the underscore character. The name cannot contain spaces or special characters.

Note: The agent name is an application level statement, meaning it can be specified before the job definition.

ROUTING

Indicates that the scheduling engine selects an agent based on resource availability and not on the agent_name operand.

NOROUTING

Indicates that the agent specified by the agent_name is selected. NOROUTING is the default.
