You start and configure UNIX Knowledge Script jobs exactly as you start and configure Knowledge Script jobs for other servers and applications, including setting the Advanced properties for event handling and data collection. Keep in mind, however, that not all of the UNIX Knowledge Scripts are applicable on all UNIX and Linux platforms. The Knowledge Script description in the Properties dialog box usually provides information about platform support if any platforms are not supported by that Knowledge Script or by a particular Knowledge Script parameter.
When you configure UNIX Knowledge Script jobs to run Actions in response to events, you can:
Select the Action_UXCommand Knowledge Script and configure it to run as a Managed Client Action to be performed on the UNIX agent computer.
Select any other Action to run as a Management Server Action to be executed on the Management Server computer.
You cannot configure an action schedule for UNIX actions. The action runs in response to the first event raised.
