  • Publication number: 20200104111
    Abstract: A request to upgrade one or more agents hosted on a particular computing system is received and an upgrade package is identified that includes a set of upgrade files. The upgrade package is determined to include a manager upgrade file for a service manager hosted on the particular computing system, where the one or more agents are child processes of the service manager. The agent upgrade files are accessed from the upgrade package and upgrades of the agents are performed using the agent upgrade files. An upgrade of the service manager is also performed using the manager upgrade file based on the request to upgrade, where the upgrade of the service manager is performed with the upgrades of the one or more agents.

  • Publication number: 20200104173
    Abstract: A connection request is received from an agent at a particular one of multiple communication processes of an automation engine, for the agent to connect to the automation engine through the particular communication process. The agent is to act as one of multiple agents configured to perform automation actions at the direction of the automation engine system, where communication between the automation engine and the agents is facilitated through the communication processes. A number of connections at each of the communication processes is determined and a threshold value is identified. The particular communication process determines that connecting the particular agent to the particular communication process would cause the number of connections at the particular communication process to violate the threshold. The particular communication process causes the particular agent to instead connect to another one of the communication processes of the automation engine based on the threshold.
