Symantec ESM lets you view information about each agent that is registered to a manager. The Agent properties window provides tabs with the following information:
Details about the operating system that includes service packs, version, and build number.
Protocol that the agent uses to communicate with the manager.
A check box that indicates whether LiveUpdate is enabled on the agent.
You can uncheck this box to prevent the manager from updating an agent.
The agent cannot accept LiveUpdates if you have not enabled LiveUpdates during agent installation. You can enable LiveUpdate also by using the LiveUpdate wizard or the Registration wizard after the agent installation. The status of this check box does not matter if you have not enabled LiveUpdate on the agent computer.
A text box that you can use to record information about the agent, such as the role that the computer plays in your network.
The Modules tab displays version information for each module. Because granular LiveUpdates only update modules when they are used in a policy run, the module versions may differ.
The Applications tab displays information about the applications that have been discovered using Symantec ESM application modules. This information includes the application versions and shows whether the latest patches are installed on the applications.
