Starting and updating ACCELQ Local Agent

If you have not already installed ACCELQ Local Agent, follow these instructions.

Installer wizard

Command line installer (when the Agent machine is faceless)

During the Agent installation process, you have the option to auto-start the Agent on every system restart. This is a preferred option. In case the Agent did not automatically start, you can do so either from the command line or from the Agent Command Center portal.

Starting the Agent from ACC Portal

Open the Agent Command Center (ACC) portal.

For Windows,

• Click the Start icon.
• Search for "ACCELQ Agent" in your installed application list and open it.
• The ACC portal will open in your default browser window.

For Linux,

• Click the Grid button (which has nine dots) to view the list of installed applications.
• Search for "ACCELQ Agent" in your installed application list and open it.
• ACC will open in your default browser window.

For Mac,

• In the Spotlight Search (Cmd + Enter), enter "ACCELQAgentDashboard.app"
• The ACC portal will open in your default browser window.

Once you are in the Agent Command Center portal, you can start your agent by clicking on the "Start Agent" button in the upper right corner of the screen, for your Agent.

Start Agent using Command Line

Type the following command in a terminal or a command prompt on the Agent machine. If you have installed multiple Agents on your machine, you can also start a specific agent by its name.

$ acc start
or
$ acc start --agent <name>

Updating from ACC Portal

When there are ongoing updates available to the Agent Command Center, you will find a band with "update" button in the Agent Command Center portal. Simply click the Update button and follow the prompts.
