Updating Monitoring Agents
The monitoring agents need to be updated when a new version of the target monitored system becomes available.
First, make sure the application is run in developer mode in order to make the built-in agents editable. Then add the new version to the agent definition file in config/agents/<agent-id>/agent
(see the highlighted entry in the file below).
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<agent>
<class>com.ixora.rms.agents.providerhost.ProviderHostAgent</class>
<version>1.0.0</version>
<name>agents.postgresql</name>
<description>postgresql.description</description>
<custom>false</custom>
<category>databases</category>
<versions>
<version>8.3</version>
<version>9.0</version>
</versions>
Alternatively you can use the Agent Installer tool ("Tools" > "Agent Installer...") to add the new version.
If the agent is based on providers, see "Upgrading provider based monitoring agents". Otherwise see "Upgrading non-provider based monitoring agents". If your agent is based both on providers and on code, apply the recommendations from both documents.
