Use the CMI Streaming Agent to define and deploy streaming ingestion and replication tasks. You configure streaming ingestion and replication tasks in the Data Ingestion and Replication service.
A CMI Streaming Agent runs on an on-premise system and works in conjunction with the Streaming Ingestion and Replication. In an on-premise system, the CMI Streaming Agent runs the jobs deployed by Streaming Ingestion and Replication. The agent provides status and statistics updates of each job.
On Linux, the CMI Streaming Agent does not start if the agent installation directory name contains a space. The agent returns a connection timeout status. After a few restart attempts, the agent goes into the error state.
