Agent Rights

For reasons of security, a newly installed agent does not have any rights. It also cannot execute tasks and cannot be selected in the objects of a client of the AE system.

The agent logs on to the AE system with an Agent object created in the folder HOST of the system client 0000. In each agent, you can define the clients that should be given access rights (Authorizations tab).

The access rights Read, Write and Execute are available:

If an agent has not been assigned one or more rights, it cannot be selected in the particular objects: FileTransfers and Jobs.

 When assigning rights to users and user groups, you can explicitly deny access to particular agents.
