Administrative agent settings

Use this page to configure the administrative agent and view its properties.

To view this administrative console page, click System Administration > Administrative agent.

Name

Specifies the administrative agent server name. The name is read-only.

Node

Specifies a name for the administrative agent node. The node name is unique within the cell. The node name is read-only.

By default, a node name is the hostname appended with Node01. For example, a node on a computer with the host name of MyComputer is named MyComputerNode01 by default.

However, the node name is a purely logical name for a group of servers. The node name does not have to contain the host name.

Short name

[z/OS]

Specifies the short name of the administrative agent server.

The server short name must be unique within a cell. The short name identifies the server to the native facilities of the operating system, such as workload manager (WLM), Automatic Restart Manager, System Authorization Facility (SAF), for example, Resource Access Control Facility (RACF®), started task control, and others.

The name can be 1-8 alphanumeric or national language characters and cannot start with a numeral.

The system assigns a cell-unique, default short name.

Data type String

Unique ID

[z/OS]

Specifies the unique ID of this administrative agent server.

The unique ID property is read-only. The system automatically generates the value.

Data type String

Start components as needed

Select this property if you want the server components started as they are needed for applications that run on this server.

When this property is not selected, all of the server components are started during the startup process. Therefore, selecting this property usually results in improved startup time because fewer components are started during the startup process.

Avoid trouble: If you are running other WebSphere® products on top of the this product, make sure that those other products support this functionality before you select this property.gotcha

Cell name

Specifies the read-only cell name of the administrative agent.

Node name

Specifies the read-only node name of the administrative agent.
