Hi Sonu Agarwal,
thanks for your useful blog.
I have followed all the steps you mentioned. However, the job status is already staying as 'ready' in stead of 'running' , even though I click on 'run now'. And I saw my agent is in 'pulse' and grey in stead of 'active'. Do you know why? and do I need to log a ticket?
Thanks in advance for your response.
Hi Yiwei,
In the desktop agent please check that it should run in the unattended mode.
By default, it is attended mode.
Thanks
Sonu
