<div><p>The Intelligent Agents console for <span class="keyword">iSeries™ Navigator</span> provides
system administrators with an easy way to manage one or more ABLE (Agent Building
and Learning Environment) agents running on a single system or across different
systems.</p>
<div class="section"><p>Intelligent agents are Java-based software components that are
capable of learning certain behaviors over time through complex autonomic
algorithms. Intelligent agents can have many different capabilities, from
simply monitoring for certain events to more complex actions like analyzing
network problems, preventing unplanned system restarts, or managing storage.
Although the goal of using agents is to simplify the system administrators
tasks through autonomic computing, system administrators still need a way
of starting, stopping, responding to, and monitoring the actions of their
agents.</p>
<p>The Intelligent Agents console for <span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span> provides
system administrators with an easy way to manage one or more ABLE (Agent Building
and Learning Environment) agents running on a single system or across different
systems. After the agent console connects to the agent services that exist
across your domain, you can monitor and work with any number of pre-configured
agents on any of the systems in your domain.</p>

<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahxagentconcepts.htm">Intelligent Agent concepts</a></strong><br />
The Intelligent Agents console uses ABLE agents running on or across a distributed agent platform. Find out more about ABLE agents, and the agent services that make up the distributed platform.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahxagentdevelop.htm">Develop Agents</a></strong><br />
Create and customize your own agent to perform the tasks that you desire. The ABLE toolkit and its associated documentation provide a working development environment and a template agent that can be used as a guide for developing your own agents.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahxagentsetup.htm">Set up your agent environment</a></strong><br />
Before you can begin managing your agents with the Intelligent Agents console, you will need to configure your agents and agent services (the agent platform) to run on or across the systems in your environment. A secure environment requires Kerberos and additional platform configuration.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahxagentmanage.htm">Manage agents</a></strong><br />
Use the agent console to connect to your domain and begin managing your agents. Find out how to control the level of automation associated with your agents, and easily respond to requests and track agent history.</li>
