Customizing Agent Configuration

The ZENworks® for Servers (ZfS) server management SNMP agents run on NetWare® and Windows* NT* servers in your network. The agents monitor servers, collecting historical data and dynamic data in response to requests from ConsoleOne®. An administrator at the ZfS ConsoleOne can request data simply by clicking a representative icon for any device, operating system, or service discovered on a server.

After the Management Agent for NetWare and the Management Agent for Windows NT have been installed on your network NetWare and Windows NT servers, they are ready to operate with the default settings. In most cases, this configuration is sufficient; however, you can customize the agent settings to enhance management functionality.
