A secure proxy administrative agent provides a single interface to administer multiple secure proxy servers.
An administrative agent can monitor and control multiple servers on one or more nodes. By using a single interface to administer your servers, you reduce the overhead of running administrative services in every server.
Use the WebSphere Customization Tools or the zpmt command and the customization jobs that they generate to configure a secure proxy administrative agent on z/OS. The secure proxy administrative agent does not run an administrative console application; instead, it accepts commands through scripting or from a job manager with which it is registered. The administrative agent must run on the same z/OS system as the secure proxy servers that it manages, and it must use the same SAF configuration group as the servers to be managed.
An administrative agent can register any of the profiles that it manages with a job manager.
