If you suspect that an agent has a problem, poll the agent from within the Uptime Infrastructure Monitor web interface to display its output and forward the results to uptime Uptime Technical Support.
To poll an agent:
- In the GlobalScan or My Enterprise Infrastructure tab, click the name of the system on which the suspected problem agent is installed.
- In the Tree panel, click the Info tab and then click Poll Agent.
If the agent is working properly, output similar to the output below should be displayed:
