The agent is intended to be run as a service and needs to be restarted automatically at system restart.
# description: The IBM Rational Build Forge Agent serves build requests # from the IBM Rational Build Forge Management Console. service bfagent { disable = no flags = REUSE socket_type = stream wait = no user = root server = /usr/local/bin/bfagent log_on_failure += USERID }
bfagent -s
When you use this option, the agent moves into the background and begins listening for connections. This line should be placed in a startup script so that the agent starts automatically on system start.
