CMK version: 2.2.0p21 / Appliance - Enterprise Edition
Error message: Version: 2.2.0p21, OS: windows, Update error: Failed to write state to 'C:\ProgramData\checkmk\agent\config\cmk-update-agent.state’WARN , Last update: Feb 01 2024 12:45:12, Agent plugins: 1, Local checks: 0
Hi,
since updating to 2.2.0p21 we have a lot of Windows Servers with the above warnings. These warnings are either resolved throughout the day without doing anything and reappear some hours/days later or we just reinstall the client with the same result. We tried uninstalling and then manually deleting the C:\ProgramData\checkmk folder before reinstalling, but that’s not it either. There does not appear to be any rhyme or reason for these warnings to come and go like they do and when they do. Any help how to tackle this issue would be much appreciated.
We use these commands to register the servers:
C:\Program Files (x86)\checkmk\service\cmk-agent-ctl.exe’ -v register --hostname hostname --server server --site site --user automation --password password --trust-cert
C:\Program Files (x86)\checkmk\service\check_mk_agent.exe’ updater register -s site -i name -H hostname -p https -U automation -S password -v
A “check_mk_agent.exe updater -v” on a server that currently shows that warning shows:
Starting Update mode as plugin.

(The warning stays after this.)
