US Patent 11645186 Remote deployment of monitoring agents on computing systems

User input is obtained at a central monitoring device to deploy a monitoring agent at a host computing node. Based on the user input, a job is identified to be executed by a deployment server to deploy the monitoring agent at the host computing node. An execution time window is identified to execute the job at the host computing node. The deployment server is accessed using a service account that does not require human intervention and the execution of the job is triggered within the execution time window to cause the deployment server to deploy the monitoring agent at the host computing node.
