Moving an agent from a manager by dragging and dropping on the target manager

You can move an agent from a manager by dragging and dropping the agent on the target manager.

To move an agent from a manager by using the drag and drop functionality

  1. Select the agent that you want to move and drag and drop the agent on the target manager. The target manager must be connected to the ESM console.

  2. In the Account Information section of the Move Agent from dialog box, check Use Credentials Of The Source Manager if you want to use the credentials of the source manager. If you check Use Credentials Of The Source Manager, you can access the new manager by using the credentials of the source manager.

    When you check Use Credentials Of The Source Manager, the Access Name and the Password fields become unavailable.

  3. If you do not want to use the credentials of the source manager, then do the following:

    • In the Access Name text box, type the user name that you want to use to access the new manager.

    • In the Password text box, type the password that you want to use to authenticate your user name.

  4. In the Domain Name on the Target Manager section, do one of the following:

    • Click Create New Domain to create a new domain for the agent that you want to move.

      In the Domain Name text box, type a name that you want for the new domain.

    • Click Use Existing Domain to use the existing domain name.

      The Domain Name drop-down list contains the All Agents domain name and the names of the customized domains on the target manager.

  5. Check Delete Raw Reports from the Source Manager to remove the existing reports of the selected agent from the source manager.

  6. Click Move.

    The Moving Agent(s) dialog box displays the names of the source manager and the target manager. The Moving Agent(s) dialog box also displays the progress of agent registration.

  7. Click Cancel to cancel the agent registration or click Done when the registration is complete.
