7.3.3. Agent Prompt Commands

The agent processes prompt commands that are passed to it, either interactively through the agent prompt or from an input file that can be passed when the start script is launched. Agent prompt commands (listed in Table 16, “Agent Prompt Commands”) can be used to manage resource (by checking availability, running discovery, or checking monitoring information) or to manage the agent itself (such as registering with a server, loading plug-ins, or viewing or reloading configuration settings).
