Overview

Each Universal Agent server component - Universal Automation Center Agent (UAG), Universal Command Server, Universal Data Mover Server, Universal Event Monitor Server, Universal Control Server, Universal Application Container, and Universal Message Service (OMS) - has a component definition.

The Component Definition is a text file of options that defines component-specific information required by the /wiki/spaces/UA73/pages/3770112.

Each Component Definition defines the following type of information:

Component type (for Universal Event Monitor Servers only).
Component name.
Component command name.
Component configuration file name.
Component working directory path.
Number of component instances that can run simultaneously.
Specification for whether or not the component starts automatically when the Universal Broker starts.

For information on the options that comprise each Component Definition, see:

Universal Event Monitor Component Definition

The Component Definition for a Universal Event Monitor Server defines whether it is a demand-driven or an event-driven server. Among other factors, this determines how the server is started (see Starting and Stopping Agent Components).

For a complete explanation of the difference between demand-driven and event-driven Universal Event Monitor Servers, see /wiki/spaces/UA73/pages/3769238.
