Question
Does rebooting the endpoint have any impact on Agent Initialization?
Answer
A reboot during Initialization will cause the progress to report back to the Console as starting from 0%. After the reboot is complete the Agent will resume Initialization and skip over directories that have already been fully processed. The reported Initialization in the Console should quickly increase from 0% to the point it was before the reboot.
Additional Notes
- It is always recommend that the endpoint be rebooted using supported, "clean" shutdown procedures. This gives the Agent time to finish writing to the local database.
- Hard power outages, holding the power button, crashing the operating system could cause corruption of the Agent's local database.
