Description Jeeva Kandasamy 2013-09-25 15:34:55 UTC

Description of problem:
If we upload new plugins on server, agent gets update like, 1. There is a agent restart required to fetch new available plugins from server or 2. will be uploaded automatically every 24 hrs once. but the second option is not working.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Version: 3.2.0.ER1
Build Number: 54dd29c:464a643
GWT Version: 2.5.0
SmartGWT Version: 3.0

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install and start JON server without any plugin. Once all the process comes to running state. load all the available plugins jar on 'jon-server-3.2.0.ER1/plugins'.
2. Click on 'Administration-->Agent Plugins-->Scan For Updates'
3. Wait for some time all the loaded successfully. however it's not loading on agent (wait and check after 24 hrs).

Actual results:

Expected results:

Comment 1 Jay Shaughnessy 2013-10-07 19:42:56 UTC

This is working as expected.  Agents update plugins at startup only (conditionally, but rhq.agent.update-plugins-at-startup is true by default).

Other than that plugins are updated only on demand by issuing the "update plugins" operation or prompt command.

This is because plugins are updated very infrequently.  If there is documentation that states otherwise it needs to be corrected.

Hi Jay, I think we have to correct it on this document..https://access.redhat.com/site/solutions/307983
