The as-agent Utility as a Seeder

The amount of data that can be stored in a space depends on the number of seeding members of that space. It can be necessary to add seeders to a space to scale it up.

as-agent is a pre-built process that users can run on any host whose sole purpose is to join all distributed spaces in the specified metaspace as a seeder and therefore to add the resources of the machine it is running on to the scalability of the spaces it joins.
