Installing the Azure Active Directory Connect Health Monitoring Agent

You must install the Active Administrator® Azure® Active Directory® Connect Health Monitoring Agent on each computer that you want to monitor. Microsoft Azure Active Directory Connect must also be installed on that computer.

Before you begin installation, you need the following information:

The Windows service will be installed in this location and the Active Administrator Azure Active Directory Connect Health Monitoring Agent will run out of this location.

5
Right-click Setup.exe, and select Run as Administrator.

-OR-

Select Start | Command Prompt (Admin), navigate to the folder where you copied the files, type Setup, and press Enter.

6
Type Y and press Enter to install the Active Administrator Azure Active Directory Connect Health Monitoring Agent.

If you press Enter without entering a name, the default is the computer name, which displays next to Agent name in the prompt.

To use another database, type N, and press Enter.

After the installation is complete, use the Agents tab or Setup.exe from the command line to manage the Active Administrator Azure Active Directory Connect Health Monitoring Agent. See Managing the Azure Active Directory Connect Health Monitoring Agent.
