Adding an instance of Application Agent

To add an instance of Application Agent:

1.

Make sure you have the following information concerning the host where Application Agent has
been installed:

Name of Application Agent identified by Replication Manager
Host ID. For a physical host (stand-alone), the IP address or host name of production server

where the agent is running. (IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are supported.) For a cluster, the IP
address or host name of virtual server

Port number (used for communication with Replication Manager)
Host Type (database or backup server)
Configuration type (physical or virtual host)
• For a cluster, the Virtual Host, which must be a name (and not an IP address), along with the

Host ID of all nodes in the cluster

TIP:

If you use IPv6 to connect to Application Agent, specify the IP address (or host name) and
port number for IBM HTTP Server.

2.

From the Explorer menu, choose Administration and then Information Source.

The Information Source subwindow appears.

3.

Expand the object tree, and then select Application Agent.

The Application Agent subwindow appears.

4.

Click Add Agent.

The Add Application Agent dialog box appears.

5.

Specify the Application Agent information you prepared in step 1.

TIP:

When you add multiple information sources at one time, you can quickly complete the registration
process by deferring the acquisition of configuration information from the instances of Application
Agent. To do this, clear the
Acquire the application configuration managed by the Application Agent during the registration
check box.

6.

Click OK to register the instance of Application Agent.

A confirmation dialog box with information about the new instance is displayed.

7.

Review the information and click Confirm.

Upon successful registration, a completion dialog box is displayed.

Once an instance of Application Agent is registered, Replication Manager loads the configuration
information associated with the Application Agent for the purposes of scanning the application
resources as described in
