About Master Agents
The master agent:
- Exposes the monitoring database, which includes configuration, instrumentation reports, events, health, and topology, through a graphical user interface (GUI)
- Sends all messages to event notification recipients.
- Centralizes all functions for both master and slave agents.
There is no need to point a browser to a slave server to configure a slave agent. Events can be sent as local email to administrators of the site or sent remotely to Sun as events and alarms.
