Run an Automated Task when a check fails
Set up Automated Tasks to run when a check fails by configuring the task or a check settings. For example, you can run a Clean All Temp Files task automatically when the Disk Space Check fails. For more information, see Run an Automated Task when a check fails.
The selected Automated Task runs only when a passing check fails and creates an entry in the Outages tab. The task does not continue to run while the check remains in a failed state. The check must pass and then fail again to trigger the task.
Mac Agent support for Apple M1 processors
Starting with Mac Agent v3.6.0 RC and macOS 11 Big Sur, Macs with Apple M1 processors are supported natively. Some add-on features, such as Antivirus, run in Rosetta 2 compatibility mode. These features will be updated for native support in a future release. The core Agent is fully supported.
The Agent is not a Universal 2 binary. If you use Migration Assistant to transfer from an Intel Mac to an Apple Silicon Mac, reinstall the Mac Agent to ensure the native version is installed. The installer automatically selects the correct package.
