Master agents

Two built-in master agents are background processes operating on each PRPC node. They are not defined by agents rules. (Technically, these are daemons, rather than full agents.)

The Master-for-Requestors master agent monitors idle requestor sessions to enforce automatic timeouts. By default, this occurs every 60 seconds. Your site can establish another value in the prconfig.xml file setting:

<env name="agents/requestortimeoutwakeup" value="NNN" />

The Master-for-Agents master agent starts and monitors agents defined through agents rules and agent schedule data instances. SR-7674 B-18381 By default, the Master-for-Agents master agent awakes every ten minutes. Your site can establish another value in the prconfig.xml file setting:

<env name="agents/newqueuewakeup" value="NNN" />

where NNN is in seconds.

As an alternative to the prconfig.xml file, you can use Dynamic System Settings to configure your application.
See How to create or update a prconfig setting.

Through prconfig.xml settings, the second master agent can detect long-running requestors, and add a line to the Alert log when one is detected. See How to detect long-running requestors.
