MFT agent status values

The fteListAgents and fteShowAgentDetails commands produce agent status information. There are several possible values for this status.

ACTIVE: The agent is running and is sending or receiving files. The agent is publishing its status at regular intervals. The last update was received within the expected time period.
READY: The agent is running, but is not sending or receiving files. The agent is publishing its status at regular intervals. The last update was received within the expected time period.
STARTING: The agent is starting, but is not yet ready to perform transfers.
UNREACHABLE: Agent status updates were not received at the expected time intervals. The agent might have stopped running due to an error, have been shut down abruptly, or might be running but is experiencing communication problems. For more information, see What to do if an agent is shown as being in an UNKNOWN state.
STOPPED: The agent has been stopped. It was shut down in a controlled manner.
ENDED UNEXPECTEDLY: The agent has ended unexpectedly. The agent will be automatically restarted, unless there have been more than maxRestartCount restarts within the maxRestartInterval time period and the maxRestartDelay value is less than or equal to 0. For more information about these properties, see The MFT agent.properties file.
NO_INFORMATION: The agent version might be IBM WebSphere® MQ File Transfer Edition 7.0.2 or earlier. The agent is not publishing updates in a form that this command can process.
UNKNOWN: The status of the agent cannot be determined. It might have published a status which is not recognized by this tool. If you have mixed product versions on your network, upgrading the installation version of this tool might fix this problem.
At IBM MQ 9.0.2, when you run commands or look at the list of agents connecting to a coordination manager and their individual properties, you can see a new Status Age value for the agent that shows the age of their last reported status. For more information, see What to do if an agent is shown as being in an UNKNOWN state.
PROBLEM: The agent command handler might not be working. The agent is publishing status messages, but these status messages are out of date.
