Restarting the Agent via the N-able N-central Repository Scripting Task.

Environment

  • N-able N-central 9+

Solution

Within N-able N-central, browse to the desired customer, then choose Actions > Run Script. Choose " N-able N-central Repository" > "Windows Agent - start/stop/restart" > add ' restart' to the parameters field so that it reads 'Windows_Agent_Service_Control.bat restart', then under the task handler tab, choose the probe (not always necessary) and finally under the targets tab, select the device or filter and Run!

If you have any issues, you will want to check that the probe is online at the site under Administration > Probes.
