This document describes the hotfix installation procedure for the z/OS agentA program that enables the de-centralized execution of processes (such as deployments) on target systems (computers or business solutions) or a service that provides connectivity to a target system (such as for databases or middleware). An agent is also an object type in the Automation Engine. [Formerly called "Executor."] See also: host.
It is important to ensure that the agent is closed before you start the update installation.
