App Control: Agent Will Not Update CL Version When Agent Upgrade Is Pending

App Control: Agent Will Not Update CL Version When Agent Upgrade Is Pending

Environment

  • App Control Server: All Supported Versions
  • App Control Agent: All Supported Versions

Symptoms

  • Agent CL Version remains constant, despite the CL Version in the Console continuing to increase with changes.
  • Agent Upgrade is in an Upgrade Requested or Upgrade Scheduled state.

Cause

Config List updates are sent by the same mechanism that sends Agent Upgrades. If an endpoint has a pending Agent Upgrade, it will stop getting CL Upgrades until the Agent Upgrade completes.

Resolution

The pending Agent Upgrade will need to be cancelled for the updated Conflig List to be sent to the Agent. This can be done either individually, Agent by Agent, or it can be done globally, for all Agents.

Individual Agent:

  1. Login to the Console and go to Assets > Computers > relevant Computer.
  2. From the menu on the right, choose the option: Remove Upgrade Request.

Globally (All Agents):

  1. Login to the Console and go to the gear icon > System Configuration > Advanced Options > Edit.
  2. Change: "Automatic Agent Upgrades" (Server 8.9 or Earlier) or "Allow Agent Upgrades" (Server 8.10 and Higher) from Enabled to Disabled. Save changes.
  3. Go to: Assets > Computers and verify that Agents begin receiving the updated Config List.

 


Additional Notes

Additional troubleshooting may be necessary prior to enabling Agent Upgrades if the Config List still is not being sent to the Agents.
