Step 4: Start the one instance of the Advisor in the sysplex

As Agents connect to the Advisor, MVS™ console messages appear on the Advisor's MVS console and on the Agents' MVS consoles. Verify that each Agent you expect to connect to the Advisor has connected. You can also use the NETSTAT,CONN command on the Advisor's TCP/IP stack to see which Agents are currently connected. The Advisor must be started from a start procedure as a started program (EXEC PGM=). It cannot be started under BPXBATCH. The IBM®-supplied program properties table has entries to make the Advisor run non-swappable. You should not override this entry to make the Advisor run swappable.
