Agent Update Issues

Troubleshooting

I finally got around to figuring out how to automate my agent registrations, but now I have a new issue.

After installing the agent, I run this command on each machine remotely:

“C:\Program Files (x86)\checkmk\service\check_mk_agent.exe” updater register -s checkmk.FQDN -i SITE -H %COMPUTERNAME%.FQDN -p https -U agentreg -S {redacted} -v

This registers the agent, and when the computername.fqdn matches the system on the site, it links properly. But now on a lot of hosts I am seeing the following issue:

Error: Agent Bakery: Invalid host secret ‘redacted’ for host hostname.FQDNWARN , Last update check: 2021-08-30 03:33:39 (warn at 2 d)WARN , Update URL: https://checkmk.FQDN/SITE/check_mk

I’ve tried re-registering the host but that fails. Has anyone had this issue before?

%COMPUTERNAME% usually contains the hostname in uppercase. Is that (including the fqdn) the configured hostname in checkmk?
