GeoCortex Agent Runner not running?

We are running GE 4.4.2, and all seems well.  However our systems administrators have some diagnostic tools that consistently send us a critical warning the Geocortex.Agent.Runner.exe is not running.  My thinking is that this is a remnant from older versions of GE but am not sure.  

 

As I mentioned we are not noticing any problems other than the monitoring messages, so I hjust want to be sure this is not a problem.

 

Thanks -

  Geocortex Agent is no longer used by Essentials as of version 4.0. You only need Agent if you are running one of the following:

  • Geocortex Essentials 3.x
  • Geocortex Optimizer 1.x
  • Geocortex Fleet Tracker 2.x

  If you arent running any of these it is safe to remove it.

  Thanks Ryan - that was my suspicion but glad to get confirmation.

   

  Can all GAS 2 files be removed as well since Geocortex Core came into use?  (just doing some housekeeping now)

  Hi Allen,

   

  Just check where your Geocortex Core "Data" directory is. There are some upgrade scenarios where this directory could still be a child of the GAS 2 directory. You wouldn't want to lose that. Otherwise yes, you can remove the GAS 2 files.

  Quick follow up on this -

   

  Does the new Geocortex Insight product require Geocortex Agent?  We have Agent running on a production ArcServer machine, that appears to be totally unneccessary and using significant resources.  We do have Insight, and it is monitoring this server but does not 'live' on this server. 

   

  I would very much like to remove this but want to make sure it won't blow up Insight.

   

  Thanks

  Geocortex Insight does not require Agent.

  Ryan,

   

  If we've upgraded to GE4 & Insight, is it recommended to remove Agent from all instances???

   

  Thanks,

  Yes, you can/should remove Agent unless you are still running one of the following on that machine:

   

  - Geocortex Essentials 3.x

   

  - Geocortex Optimizer 1.x

   

  - Geocortex Fleet Tracker 2.x

  Does this apply to Geocortex Application Services as well?

   

  It has the same install date on our server as Geocortex Agent. (Sorry if this is a dumb question, I've only been in charge of our Geocortex since around version 4.1).
