Stop a running agent

You can stop the agent from the top menu bar or from the command line.

Using System Insight Manager to stop the AD agent

1.Initiate this task by selecting Configure →Matrix OE Agents→Stop AD Agents from the top menu bar.

2.Using the system list, select the HP-UX systems where you want to stop an agent. Click Apply.

3.Verify the system selection and click Next.

4.A description of the action about to take place is displayed. When you are sure that you want to complete the action, click Run now to stop the agent.

Stopping the agent from the command line

To stop a running agent, enter the following command:

/opt/amgr/bin/amgrd -stop

For the full description of the options available for modifying agent behavior, see “Commands for controlling Application Discovery agent and certificates” (page 57).

Reconfigure a running agent from the command line

To change attributes of the agent while it is running, type on the command line:

/opt/amgr/bin/amgrd [-option] [-option]

For example, the following command illustrates changing the frequency for collecting data about processes and packages.

/opt/amgr/bin/amgrd [-procfreq interval{smh}] [-packfreq interval{smh}]

where

•-procfreqinterval{smh} changes the current frequency for collecting process data.

•-packfreqinterval{smh} changes the current frequency for collecting package data.

and interval is the time span between polls. Interval may be given in seconds (s), minutes (m), or hours (h).

For example, the following command designates a process collection frequency of 10 minutes and a package collection frequency of 30 minutes:

/opt/amgr/bin/amgrd -procfreq 10m -packfreq 30m

For the full range of options, see “Commands for controlling Application Discovery agent and certificates” (page 57).

Checking agent state

To check agent state, access Application Discovery (Tools→Integrated Consoles→Application Discovery...) and select Admin/Config and then AD Agents tab. Locate the Agent State and WBEM State columns in the “Hosts/Agents” table.

Matrix Operating Environment Software specifications

HP Matrix Operating Environment (MOE) is an innovative software platform designed to deliver efficient management and orchestration of IT resources across physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructures. It provides a comprehensive solution for organizations that require a robust and flexible environment to manage their IT operations seamlessly.

One of the main features of HP MOE is its ability to optimize resource utilization by automating the provisioning and management of infrastructure components. This includes the ability to rapidly deploy servers, storage, and networking resources in a manner that meets the dynamic needs of modern businesses. This automation significantly reduces the time and effort required for manual configurations, enabling IT teams to focus on strategic initiatives rather than routine tasks.

The software offers a unified management interface that provides visibility into the entire IT environment. Users can monitor performance metrics, track resource allocation, and manage workflows through a single dashboard. This centralized control not only simplifies operations but also enhances decision-making capabilities by providing real-time insights into system health and performance.

Another critical characteristic of HP MOE is its support for both physical and virtual resources. The platform is designed to seamlessly integrate with existing infrastructure, making it easier for organizations to adopt virtualization and hybrid cloud strategies. Its compatibility with industry-standard hypervisors allows businesses to leverage their current investments while taking advantage of the benefits of virtualization.

HP MOE incorporates advanced technologies such as automation scripts, APIs, and tools for workload balancing. This technological backbone enables organizations to implement elasticity in their environments, allowing them to scale resources up or down based on demand. The software also supports a service-oriented architecture, facilitating integration with other enterprise applications and systems.

Security is a top priority in the design of HP MOE. The software provides robust security features that ensure data integrity and protect against unauthorized access. This includes role-based access controls, encryption, and compliance reporting, all of which contribute to a secure operating environment.

In summary, HP Matrix Operating Environment Software is a powerful solution that addresses the complexities of managing modern IT resources. Its key features include automation, unified management, support for physical and virtual environments, and strong security measures. With its ability to enhance efficiency and streamline operations, HP MOE is an essential tool for organizations looking to stay competitive in an increasingly digital landscape.
