IMPORTANT: You must restart most NetMail® agents' executables to effect any changes in their configuration. For information on loading and unloading the NetMail® Agents, see the Novell® NetMail Administration Guide at http://www.novell.com/documentation.
Monitored queues are the message queues serviced by the agent. Messages passing through the specified message queue are scanned and processed according to the agent's configuration options.
A single agent can monitor multiple message queues; however, you should not configure multiple agents of the same type to monitor the same queue. Doing so produces inconsistent results, such as duplicate messages.
Because NMAP Agents manage the message
queues, the Monitored Queues property corresponds to NMAP Agents. On a standalone
messaging server, WebAdmin automatically selects the NMAP Agent on
the current server. In distributed messaging systems, you can select
any NMAP Agent on a distributed messaging server. Click the
Browse button
to select one or more NMAP Agents using the Browse
dialog box.
IMPORTANT: If you have a distributed messaging system with multiple NMAP Agents, you must ensure that the agent only processes messages one time as they go from the queue server to the message store. For more information, see the Novell NetMail Administration Guide at http://www.novell.com/documentation.
