ControlUp Agents Can Now Self-Register

A user asked if agents can now self-register and not rely on an old CVAD scraping script. Another user responded that this is possible with the new agent outbound feature and built-in folder synchronization in version 9.1. This allows for self-registration against the monitor cluster. The ControlUp support links for these features are: -InstallAsMasterImage https://support.controlup.com/v1/docs/install-cuagent-install-an-agent#install-agent-with-selfregistration -Built-in folder synchronization https://support.controlup.com/docs/built-in-folder-synchronization

So built in folder sync will make sure computer objects are created and placed in the right folder, and the agent outbound feature allows agents to self register against the monitor cluster

Version 9.1 is recommended for this
