    The service Manager is not supposed to show up in AWI. The purpose od Service Manager is to manage(start/stop) WP/CP and Agents. As for the issue with the agent, how do you start the agent ? Are the Agent and ServiceManager installed on the same server ?

    If the service manager is running, you can see the agent in AWI, that was my point, however agent doesn't show up at all.
    Agent and Service Manager are on same server.
    Start agent: nohup ./ucxjlx6 AUTOPRD &

    There's no need to add the name of the System.  Please try one of the following to start the agent:

    Enter the following if the directory $HOME/bin has been set in the system environment PATH:
    nohup ucxjlx6 1>ucxjlx6.log 2>&1 &

    Enter the following if the directory $HOME/bin has not been set in the system environment PATH:
    nohup ./ucxjlx6 1> ucxjlx6.log 2>&1 &

    Also, you should install ServiceDialog o that you can start/stop Agents from your Windows machine.

    This worked.

    nohup ./ucxjlx6 1> ucxjlx6.log 2>&1 &

    However SM doesn't show the status correctly.

    Thank you :)

    shanikushwaha606112 yes, it is normal that SM does not reflect the status of the agent because you started the Agent  from the command line instead from the SM. As i have mentioned before, you need t o install Service Dialog on your Windows machine so that you can connect to the ServiceManager installed on the Linux machine. Then you will be able to start/stop the Linux agent.

    Service Manager Dialog is installed on the Windows machine(AE) already.

    shanikushwaha606112  OK, please stop the Linux agent by killing the process ucxjlx6. Then, please try to start the Linux Agent from your Service Dialog.
