From Sun Solaris:

/etc/init.d/agent stop/etc/init.d/agent start

From IBM AIX:

/etc/rc.agent stop/etc/rc.agent start

From HP-UX:

/sbin/init.d/agent stop/sbin/init.d/agent start

From Linux:

/etc/init.d/naviagent stop/etc/init.d/naviagent startFrom VMware:

/etc/init.d/naviagent stop/etc/init.d/naviagent start

From Novell NetWare:

load sys:\emc\agent\navagent -f sys:\emc\agent\agent.cfgunload navagent

From Windows:

Go to "Services" (located in different locations depending on the version of Windows, but typically found under"Computer Management" or "Administrative Tools") and find "Navisphere Agent ".Click STOP SERVICE, wait for the service to stop, and then click START SERVICE (or, instead of STOP/START, simplyclick the RESTART SERVICE).
