I have two AIX agents that are not communicating with my hub, for whatever reason.  I want to restart the agent services, but am not sure the appropriate method to do it on AIX.  Normally to bounce most other AIX services/daemons, I'd use the "stopsrc" and "startsrc" commands, however, I don't see anything related to Cfengine in the output of "lssrc -a".  Anyone have a suggestion?  I have Cfengine 3.5.1.

Just to sort of close this up, I did find the following "init" script:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/cfengine3

That takes 'stop|start' arguments.  It seemed to work, however, out of the box the permissions are set to 644 and not the expected 755.  So after flipping +x, it did the trick.
