Stopping the Agent from the command line

You can stop Agent on the managed node by issuing the best1agent_stop command from the command line.

1. To stop Agent, do one of the following:

   • On UNIX, if BEST1_HOME is set to /usr/adm/best1_23.1.00, type:

     % $BEST1_HOME/bgs/scripts/best1agent_stop -b $BEST1_HOME

   • On Windows, if the Agent is installed at C:\Program Files\BMC Software, navigate to the following directory and double-click bgsagent_stop.exe:

     C:\Program Files\BMC Software\Patrol3\BEST1\23.1.00\bgs\bin
2. Verify the output:
