Agent Group

An agent group combines agents of the same platform. The agents to be included in an agent group are specified by entering the agent name or via filters. A task which runs in an agent group is processed on one or all of the agent group's agents, depending on the specified mode.

Object class: System object
Object type (short form): HOSTG

Host group selection, which includes selection of the agent for a task, is made before its script is processed. :PUT_ATT can be used to define a different agent but not a different agent group. The script function PREP_PROCESS_AGENTGROUP can be used to read the agents of an agent group.
