Agent Diagnostics script

Prev Next

The Agent Diagnostics script is a special script used to provide Trellix Customer Support with the data needed to help you resolve problems. When Agent Diagnostics are requested, the Endpoint Security (HX) xAgent on the selected host endpoint collects the forensic data and produces a downloadable .zip file for you to review or submit to your Trellix Customer Support representative. This data includes agent scan logs.

This script can be requested for Windows, macOS, and Linux host endpoints.

You cannot copy, edit, reset, import, or delete the Agent Diagnostics script or use this script in data acquisition scripts you create. This script does not appear on the Data Acquisition Scripts page.
