5. If the activation is successful, the Status column indicates Scheduled or Running,
and the name of the downloaded surveillance schedule is displayed in the Schedule
column of the selected hosts; otherwise, Error or No Agent Available is
displayed in the Status column.
6. If Error is shown for a host, view the error messages on the Network Node Error
tab for the host. For more information see “Network Node Screen” (page 67) and
“Errors Tab ” (page 116) then check the status. For more information, see “Getting
the Status of Agent Hosts” (page 62).
If No Agent Available is shown for a host, see “No Agent Available” (page 275)
for troubleshooting options.
Stopping Schedules on Agent Hosts
When you stop a surveillance schedule on an agent host, the schedule is removed from
the agent and ceases to be scheduled or running. The agent program continues running,
ready to accept future actions.
If you want to replace one schedule with another, just activate the new one. For more
information, see “Activating Schedules on Agent Hosts” (page 64).
To stop a surveillance schedule on agent hosts, follow these steps:
1. On the System Manager screen, in the Monitored Hosts list, select one or more
hosts on which you want to stop the schedules.
2. Select one of the following options to stop the schedule:
• Click the Stop button.
• Choose the Actions > Stop Schedule menu item.
• Press Shift+F3.
• Right-click in the Monitored Hosts area and select Stop Schedule from the
menu
The schedules are stopped and removed from the selected hosts. The Status field
is set to Available and the Schedule field is set to None. To restart the schedules,
you must activate them again. For more information, see “Activating Schedules
on Agent Hosts” (page 64).
Halting HP-UX HIDS Agents
You can stop the agent process on one or more agent hosts for system maintenance or
other reasons.
Normally, you halt agent hosts from the System Manager. However, it can be necessary
to halt the agent software directly from the agent host. For example, if you misconfigure
the installation of the key certificates needed for SSL encryption, the agent starts, but
cannot communicate with the System Manager. In this scenario, you must halt the
agent host and restart it.
