When you are ready to apply changes you have selected for an Agent instance, such as connector updates, you must restart the Agent.
To restart an Agent instance:
Log in to the host server where the Agent instance is installed.
Open a command line and run the following commands:
cd <Agent_install_dir>
sh agent/stop.sh
sh agent/start.sh
(Conditional) If you restarted the Agent because you added, updated, or deleted connectors, the Connector Update Results window opens.
Verify that the connectors updated successfully.
(Optional) If you do not want to see this information again, click the trashcan icon.
NOTE:The Connector Update Results window appears once per session or if you restart the Agent, at which time a new results file is generated. When you delete the information in this window, the information is deleted from the Agent console, but it is retained in backup files in the /backup folder.
