Agents Grid
Only Global and Restricted Admins can use this feature.
The Agents grid in the Web Console displays all active and retired Agents. Upon activating or retiring any Agents in the Client Console, they are displayed in the Web Console's Agents grid.
To access the Agents grid:
On the top navigation bar, click the Administration icon, and then click Log Collection.
The Log Sources page appears.On the left side, click Agents.
View Active and Retired Agents
By default, the grid displays active Agents. To view retired Agents, click the Show Retired Agents check box in the upper-right corner of the page.
By default, the grid displays 100 Agents. To load more Agents into the grid, scroll to the bottom. The list expands to add another 100 Agents. Repeat this process as needed until all Agents are shown.
