Solution
A Diagnostics Agent is a standalone Java program that runs on each of
the systems managed by SAP Solution Manager Diagnostics. It gathers information and reports to the SAP Solution Manager system.
The installation of the SAP Solution Manager Diagnostics Agent
(Diagnostics Agent) is now part of the Installation Master DVD. That is, you can choose between the following options:
If there is no Diagnostics Agent already installed on this physical or virtual host, it is installed automatically with every primary application server instance and additional application server instance.
You can also install it as a standalone engine, for example if you want a non-SAP system to be managed by SAP Solution Manager Diagnostics.
The installation of the Diagnostics Agent is described in the Diagnostics Agent Setup Guide, which is attached to this SAP Note.
