Why is the CYRISMA Cloud Agent Idle or Down?
The CYRISMA Cloud Agent remains in a down or idle state when:
- No cloud server has been designated.
- A data scan has not been initiated.
The agent requires an active cloud server and an ongoing data scan to function properly.
Steps to Resolve the Idle Status
1. Designate a Cloud Server
- Assign a machine to act as the cloud server. This step is essential for enabling the Cloud Agent to start operations.
2. Schedule a Scan
- Once a cloud server is designated, schedule a scan via the CYRISMA platform. This will activate the Cloud Agent.
3. Request Scan Prioritization (Optional)
- If an urgent scan is needed, submit a support ticket requesting prioritization.
- Your scan will begin shortly after the ticket submission.
