Description Filip Brychta 2012-10-08 16:39:50 UTC
Description of problem:
There is a description of installing Agent Plug-in Packs in https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/JBoss_Operations_Network/3.1/html/Installation_Guide/installing-plugins.html but there exists a simpler way how to do that (especially when installing a new JON server).

The simplest way how to install Agent Plug-in Packs when installing a new JON server should be:
1- before starting JON server, copy desired plugin jars to $JON_SERVER_HOME/plugins
2- start JON server and continue with installation procedure


When installing Agent Plug-in Packs and JON server is already running following scenario is possible:
1- copy desired plugin jars to $JON_SERVER_HOME/plugins
2- go to Administration->Agent plugins->Scan for updates
3- update plugins on agent via agent's prompt command 'plugins update' or invoke operation 'Update all plugins' on RHQ Agent resource

Steps 2 and 3 should be optional, operations 'Scan for updates' and 'Update all plugins' are scheduled periodically (must be confirmed by someone from developement and default period must be confirmed as well )
