Assign Agents to a Load Balanced Group

This section describes the process of adding Agents to a load balanced group, either one at a time or in bulk.

Assign a Single Agent to a Load Balanced Group

You can add a single Agent to a load balanced group using the Syslog and Flow Settings tab in the System Monitor Agent Properties window.

  1. On the main toolbar, click Deployment Manager.
  2. Click the System Monitors tab.
  3. Right-click the System Monitor you want to assign to a load balanced group, and then click Properties.
  4. Click the Syslog and Flow Settings tab.
  5. Check Enable Load Balancing.
  6. Open the Load Balanced Group drop-list and select the desired load balanced group.
  7. Click Apply, and then click OK.
    The Agent is successfully added to the load balanced group.

    Alternatively, right-click on an Agent, hover over Actions, and then click Assign Load Balanced Group. Select the desired group from the list, and then click OK.

Assign Multiple Agents to a Load Balanced Group

You can add multiple Agents to the same load balanced group at once using the Syslog Settings option in the Edit Properties menu.

  1. On the main toolbar, click Deployment Manager.
  2. Click the System Monitors tab.
  3. Select the multiple Agents you want to assign to a load balanced group.
  4. Right-click one of the selected Agents, hover over Actions, and then hover over Edit Properties.
  5. Click the Syslog Settings option.
  6. Check Enable Load Balancing.

    If one or more of the selected Agents is already assigned to a load balanced group, the Enable Load Balancing checkbox is filled with a dot.

    Clicking the dot removes all Agents from any previously-assigned load balanced groups. Checking the now-empty box allows you to add all of the selected Agents to the same load balanced group.

  7. Open the Load Balanced Group drop-list and select the desired load balanced group.
  8. Click Apply, and then click OK.
    The Agents are successfully added to the load balanced group.
