What are ServicePilot Agents?
ServicePilot Agents are components of the ServicePilot ecosystem that obtain and normalize data from monitored resources.
ServicePilot Agent monitoring
ServicePilot monitors ServicePilot Agents availability by counting the number of agents that are operational, that have not yet been configured or are unreachable. A list of host names of agents which are unreachable is also provided.
If the configuration has more than one ServicePilot Agent it is recommended to add an alert to detect when agents are unavailable.
Requirements
There are no pre-requisites to adding a resource of this package. Only one instance of this package is required.
Installation
Before adding a resource to monitor, make certain that all pre-requisites are in place.

Notes
If there is more than one ServicePilot Agent, it is recommended to add an alert so that administrators of ServicePilot are notified when ServicePilot Agents are unavailable. When adding an alert for this package, a delay is preferable before an alert triggers to eliminate server reboots and agent upgrades from the problems that are notified by the alert policy.
