System Administration | Node Agents | node_agent_name
A node agent must be started on each node for the deployment manager node to collect and control servers that are configured on that node. If we use configuration synchronization support, a node agent coordinates with the dmgr server to synchronize the configuration data of the node with the master copy that the dmgr manages.
You must initially start a node agent outside the admin console.
The Runtime tab displays only when a node agent runs.

- Select this property if we want the server components started as they are needed for applications that run on this server.
When this property is not selected, all of the server components are started during the startup process. Therefore, selecting this property usually results in improved startup time because fewer components are started during the startup process.
Avoid trouble: If running other WebSphere products on top of the this product, make sure that those other products support this functionality before you select this property.
