  6. Go to the conf folder of the agent installation directory and open the agent.properties file (Agent configuration file).

  7. Use the server.host parameter to specify the IP-address of the SAYMON server for the agent to connect. Save changes and close the file.

  8. Open the Services snap-in and start the saymon-agent service.

  9. After the agent is registered on the server, a new Saymon Agent class object is created. The server transmits the ID of the created object (agentId) to the agent. The registration.json file is created on the agent host (for Windows 64-bit - C:\Program Files (x86)\SAYMON Agent\storage, for Windows 32-bit - C: \Program Files\SAYMON Agent\storage) that contains this ID.

  10. To initiate the procedure for obtaining agentId again (for example, if you need to connect the agent to another server), delete the registration.json file and restart the agent service.

Log files

During operation, the agent creates log files. These files are stored in the log folder of the agent installation directory.
