LEM Report on Connector status

earlonics

Hi I wonder if anyone could advise please on the "Connector report" within LEM  I have just taken over the role as support for this product so bare with me.

I have run a report which lists all connectors and there is a heading of Installed Date and Last Connected,

The issue I seem to have is the Column Last connected doesn't seem to reflect the correct date and time, I would expect if the Connector is connected to the Manager that it it would show the date and time now however its displaying as 2 months ago. Now I know the connector is connected as I get E-mail reports, is there a bug in the logging of Last connected.

BTW if I start and stop the connector I get the date and time the connector was restarted. Followed by the appropriate E-mail Alerts.

So the question is does the Connector status only update at a predefined time or should I be getting real time update on the connector?

Thanks for any help

    The "Last Connected" time in the Report is the last time the LEM and the Agent went through a whole handshake/negotiation/connection cycle.  This usually occurs when the Agent service is restarted or a device reboots.  If your boxes were last rebooted two months ago, and everything has been up and running since then, that's the last time the Agent did the connection dance.
