Exporting Agent Pool

Before you can create a Silk Central test-agent cluster file, you need to output the connection properties, capabilities, and system information of the available agents in your agent pool.

  1. Navigate to System > Settings > Agents > Agent Pool .
  2. Click the Export Agent Pool button.
  3. Specify an appropriate path and filename to save the contents of your agent pool as an XML file.

Example agent pool file

This XML file includes an AgentPool root element. Within the root element are Agent elements, one for each agent in the agent pool. Within each Agent element are elements that convey the connection properties, capabilities, and system information of that agent.
