SMD Agent 7.4* and SAPHOSTAGENT

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Thanks for looking in to this.

I have installed the latest SMD agent (7.41) on the managed system. I managed to read somewhere that the latest smd agents have an option to update host agents automatically. can some one help me in telling me how this can be done?  i know of the old procedure by keeping the latest host agent in $DIR_EXECUTABLE. But I assume there is a new procedure in updating host agents with SMD. i couldnt find sap notes on this. Could anyone help me on this?

thanks in advance..
