3. Enter a name for the agent.
4. Based on the script you selected, a list of parameters is displayed. Enter the parameter value you want the agent to use as the rule for determining when to generate an alert.
  The More Info column displays additional information about the parameter, such as the default value. If the More Info column includes the lock icon, the value of the parameter is encrypted. The characters you are masked on the screen with bullet characters.
