About the AppManager WBEM Agent

The AppManager WBEM Agent provides a taste of AppManager's most useful and productive management and monitoring features for Windows 2000 servers and workstations. We have simplified configuration by choosing the most common default settings. For example, when you are using the full AppManager product to monitor Windows 2000 or Windows NT, you can specify a memory usage threshold; when memory usage exceeds this threshold, AppManager generates an event. In the AppManager WBEM Agent, we have selected a standard memory usage threshold.

To use the WBEM AppManager Agent:

• Install the AppManager WBEM Agent on every computer that you want to manage

• Use a WBEM-enabled browser to connect to that computer.

Once connected to the managed computer, you can run Knowledge Script jobs on that computer. When you run a job, you have the option to:

• Generate an event when a performance threshold is exceeded.

• Collect data that can be used for performance analysis and reporting.

From the WBEM browser, you will interact with the managed computer using three classes that are registered in the NetIQ schema:

Use this class:	To:
NetIQ_LRJob	Start and stop jobs on the managed computer, and browse job status.
NetIQ_LREvent	Browse any events generated by jobs running on the managed computer.
NetIQ_LRGraph	Browse any data collected on the managed computer.
