Use the Spotinst agent status and logs to verify that the agent is running correctly on your instances. This helps you confirm that Elastigroup and your instances are communicating as expected and troubleshoot issues if the agent is not healthy.
-
Check agent status in the Flexera console
-
Open the Flexera console.
-
Go to Elastigroup > Groups.
-
Select the relevant group, then select the Instances tab.
-
Verify the agent status for each instance:
-
If the agent has sent a heartbeat in the last 2 minutes, it appears as healthy.
-
If there is no recent heartbeat, investigate the instance directly.
-
-
-
Check the agent on Linux instances
-
Connect to your Linux instance using SSH or EC2 Instance Connect.
-
Verify that the agent service is running:
-
Run: service spotinst-agent status
-
-
Review the agent log file for errors or warnings:
-
Log path: /var/log/spotinst.spotinst-agent.log
-
-
-
Check the agent on Windows instances
-
Connect to your Windows instance using RDP.
-
Browse to the Spotinst agent folder:
-
C:\Spotinst
-
-
Review the agent log files in this folder for errors or warnings.
-
After you complete these steps, you can confirm whether the Spotinst agent is running and healthy, and use the logs on Linux or Windows to troubleshoot any issues.
