You can start/stop the managed agent from the command line (green screen) by following the steps below:

Start the QSHELL by typing STRQSH at the command prompt.
Change to the JDE_HOME/bin directory by typing <install_dir>/JDE_HOME/bin.
*** The <install_dir> refers to the installation directory in the IFS
To start the agent enter: startAgent &
*** The & allows the agent to start as a background job so that it will not stop when you leave the QSHELL
To stop the agent enter: stopAgent
To restart or bounce the agent enter: restartAgent

You will want to run this in your startup script with a user that has a job queue that is not able to be interrupted. Because of this, QINTER is not a very good choice. The user will also need the following permissions: *ALLOBJ, *SAVSYS, *JOBCTL & *SECADM.
