Agent Groups
As of version 6.0, FactoryTalk AssetCentre agents may be categorized into groups. By default, and in versions before 6.0, all agents were required to be identically configured such that the AssetCentre server could assign a task to any existing agent. With Agent Groups, an asset can have an assigned Agent Group, allowing for agents to have different configurations. Up to 100 agent groups, including 50 local agent groups and 50 remote agent groups can be configured on a given Knowledgebase Document ID: QA21618 - FactoryTalk AssetCentre Agent Group FAQ for more information.
TIP:
It is possible to exceed 100 agent groups, including 50 local agent groups and 50 remote agent groups, in a single system, but doing so is not recommended. Because the maximum number of agent groups used in product testing was 100, exceeding this number will introduce some risk, as this configuration has not been thoroughly tested.
