start

Starting or Stopping Data Collection

The start command initiates data collection for one or more Foglight™ agent instances.

To create an agent instance that collects data, you first create the agent instance, activate it, and then start the data collection for that agent instance. Similarly, when you want to remove an agent instance, use a reverse order of actions: first stop the agent instance, deactivate it, and then delete it.

You should issue this command after creating and/or activating an agent instance. For information on how to activate agent instances using the fglcmd interface, see activate .

Table 16. Options and arguments
Option
Argument
Description

activatable

true or false

Indicates whether to start agent instances that can (true) or cannot be activated (false).

active

true or false

Indicates whether to start agent instances that are active (true) or inactive (false).

adapter

adapter_ID

An explicit text string or a regular expression that identifies one or more Foglight adapters.

agentid

agent_ID

Identifies an instance of a Foglight agent that is to be started.

all

None

Indicates that all agent instances should be started.

connection_options

Specifies the user name and password for the Foglight Management Server, as well as the machine name and port number, if necessary. Alternatively, fglcmd can retrieve this information from a user-specific properties file. For more information on how to specify connection options on the command line, see Logging In and Setting the Scope . For details on using a properties file, see Using a Properties File to Supply Connection Information .

datacollection

true or false

Indicates whether to start Foglight agent instances that are (true) or are not collecting data (false).

deletable

true or false

Indicates whether to start Foglight agent instances that can (true) or cannot be deleted (false).

force

None

In cases where multiple agents are selected, it

indicates that all selected agents should be started.

host

host_name

An explicit text string or a regular expression that specifies one or more host names.

name

agent_name

An explicit text string or a regular expression that specifies the name of one or more agent instances that are to be started.

namespace

agent_namespace

An explicit text string or a regular expression that specifies the name of one or more Foglight agent instances in the specified name space.

nowait

None

Indicates that the command should not wait for the selected agents to finish processing before starting the selected Foglight agent instances.

regex

None

Interprets the agent_name, agent_namespace, agent_type, or host_name arguments as regular expressions.

For a sample regular expression used to specify a host name, see Example .

type

agent_type

An explicit text string or a regular expression that specifies one or more Foglight agent types.

The selection of available agent types depends on the collection of deployed cartridges. For example, a basic Foglight Management Server installation that includes the Cartridge for Infrastructure can two different agent types:

•
WindowsAgent
•
UnixAgent

For more information about these agents, see the Managing the Infrastructure Cartridge User and Reference Guide.

Example
C:\Quest\Foglight\bin>fglcmd -usr foglight -pwd foglight
-cmd agent:start -host Host1 -active true -force
 
* 
NOTE: If successful, this command does not generate any output.

stop

The stop command terminates the data collection for one or more Foglight™ agent instances.

If you want to delete an agent instance, you first stop the agent’s data collection, deactivate it, and then delete the instance.

To delete an agent instance, a typical flow of actions requires you to first stop the agent’s data collection, deactivate it, and then delete the instance. However, the deactivate and delete commands that allow you to deactivate and delete agent instances, include options and arguments that let you override that flow and delete active agent instances that are collecting data without first stopping their data collection.

For information on how to start an agent’s data collection using the command line, see start .
