About releasing the Agent Manager lockbox

An Agent Manager lockbox needs to be released the first time an agent is deployed to the Agent Manager host. This releases the lockbox to the client Agent Manager Host, making all the credentials in the lockbox available to the agents on that host. You can release the lockbox from the Storage Device Setup wizard, the Edit Agent Properties dialog box, or from the Credentials dashboard.
