Standard Agents in an Multi node system
If a Standard Agent runs in Multi node system ,then does at all nodes the Agent Activity runs? I know that for Advanced agent ,the agent activity runs in all nodes but even for standard agent -agent activity runs at all nodes or Pega handles it as it is a standard agent and prevents Agent Activity running from all nodes?
Please let me know

Thank you..but I want to know does the above logic applies for all types of Agents irrespective of it being Standard type Agent or Advanced type of Agent.

Hi Kumar,
This behavior/design applies to Agents as a whole and are not limited to type.

Hi Kumar,
The Agents rule is a blueprint and by default will run on all nodes in the cluster if it is "enabled". PRPC runtime implicitly generates "Agent Schedule" instances from the Agents rule and ties one Agent Schedule instance per node/jvm in the cluster. You can view these Agent Schedule instances from the "Nodes" tab of the Agents rule form or by opening the instances of the Agent Schedule from Records > SysAdmin > Agent Schedule. Once you click on the Agent Schedule instance for a specific node you can explicitly enable or disable the corresponding Agent from running on that node. I hope that answers your question. Feel free to reply if you have additional questions.
