Set Maximum Missed Status Update Tolerance

Use the Set maximum missed status update tolerance group policy to specify how many times the auditing agent will fail to connect to a collector before sending a notification that the agent is not joined to a collector. The interval between attempts is 5 minutes.

This group policy modifies the agent.max.missed.update.tolerance setting in the agent configuration file.

To use this group policy:

1. Double click the policy in the right pane of the Group Policy Management Editor.
2. Click Edit.
3. Select Enabled.

4. Enter the value.

   For example, enter 3 if you would like the agent to notify you after 3 failed attempts to join a collector.

5. Click OK.

If this group policy is Disabled or Not Configured the default value is 4.

This group policy can be used with the DirectAudit Daemon Settings group policy which allows you to specify the amount of time, in seconds, that the agent waits during each connection attempt before it determines that it cannot connect to a collector.
