Issue/Introduction

I don't know where the Workload Automation System Agent is installed on my server. How can I find the agent?

Resolution

On Windows Servers:

  • Launch Services panel in Windows.
  • Locate the Agent in the listing of Services.
  • Right click on the Agent Service and choose Properties.
  • The Service Properties is displayed. About half way down on the panel you will see "Path to Executable."
  • This is where the agent is installed.

On UNIX Servers:

  • Logon to the UNIX/Linux server where agent is installed.
  • At command line enter the command string find / -name cybAgent -print 2>/dev/null
    Note: Some derivatives of Linux provide support for locate command. So, a simple locate cybAgent would work also. This does not work on UNIX platforms (AIX, Solaris, HP-UX, etc.)
