Common Agent Configuration File Structure
Each section of the agent.cfg file contains groups of fields that directly correspond to an installed client agent on a UNIX, Linux, or Mac OS X device in the backup network. Except for the agent home directory location, all fields in the file are predetermined.
The environment variable field (ENV) contents are also determined during client agent installation and configuration. However, if required, you can enter values for this variable into the file manually. You should modify the agent.cfg only in certain circumstances; for example, if you wanted to associate an additional environment field with a particular database.
Note: Modifications to the agent.cfg file take effect only after the client agent machine is started (or stopped and restarted).
An example of the agent.cfg file is shown in the following table, with a description of each agent field.
