Ursache
There are errors in the registry of the core. These errors are causing the communication between the core and license portal to fail. -
Lösung
open the registry on the core.
navigate to the folder key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AppRecovery\Core\Agents and expand the Agents folder
click on each agent ID in the agents folder, when you do, look to the right window pane. The values will be displayed. The agents that are causing the portal connection to fail will be missing some values.
When you find these entries that are incomplete. you'll need to delete them. Before doing that ensure that you have the IP address or hostname and user and password credentials.
- Stop the Core Service.
- Right click and delete the previously identified incomplete keys.
- Start the Core Service.
- Add the machines to protection that were just deleted from the Core registry.
