IBM Data Virtualization Remote Agent

A remote agent enables Data Virtualization to automatically access data, such as files located in a remote data source. If you need to virtualize data that is stored on a remote data source or file system, you must install a remote connector on the data source where the data is located. The credentials used to establish the connection to the data source determine what data in the data source can be accessed by the Data Virtualization service.

Data Virtualization provides a way to add a connector on a remote data source by generating and running the dv-endpoint.sh or dv-endpoint.bat configuration script. The dv-endpoint.sh or dv-endpoint.bat script performs the following tasks:

  • Ensures that you meet all prerequisites to add a remote agent.
  • Sets the specified parameters to add the remote agent.
  • Downloads and extracts the remote agent installation package.
  • Start and check the status of the remote agent.
