Check the Status of the UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X Client Agents

To check the status of a UNIX, Linux, or Mac OS X client agent, log in as root and issue the following command at the command line:

# uagent status

If this command fails, the client agent may need to be configured. To configure the client agent, run the following script:

#abuagent/uagentsetup

In this example, abuagent represents the full path name of the agent home directory. The default path is /opt/CA/ABuagent.
