About testing agents

You can test agents using:

• The engine

  (See Using the engine process to test agents)

• The AgentServer utility

  (See Using the AgentServer utility to test agents)

Before testing an agent, make sure you complete the following tasks:

• Build the agent DLL and place it in the directory %VCS_HOME%\bin\resource_type.
• Install script entry points in the directory %VCS_HOME%\bin\resource_type.

If you are using the Veritas Cluster Server engine process to test the agent, make sure you have:

• Defined the resource type in agentTypes.cf, defined the resources in main.cf, and restarted the engine. You may define the new type and resources using commands from the command line.
