Rick was attempting to configure ControlUp Scout for Microsoft Teams but one of the tests was failing. They wanted to know where the hive was located and after they identified it as a custom hive on the internal network, it was suggested that it may be due to a firewall issue. As a first step, it was suggested to make sure calls can be initiated from the custom hive location. More information can be found in the ControlUp support page https://support.controlup.com/docs/custom-hive-overview.

Can Two ControlUp Deployments be Run on One Machine?
A user asked if two different ControlUp Deployments could be run on one machine. It is not possible, but when upgrading, the console, monitor, and agents can be updated separately. For a migration from an on-prem to a cloud environment, a registry key needs to be deleted. The Auth key and Organization key need to be cleared and set again. Alternatively, it is possible to keep the same org and change the mode to cloud.

How to Select Storage Region and Understand Security in ControlUP (Cloud)?
A user asked about setting up ControlUp Cloud - the default regional location depends on the user's location and can either be the US or EU. Historical data loss will occur if migration to a different region is requested. The region specific locations are US-East-1 (N. Virginia) and EU-central-1 (Frankfurt). There might also be some customers on eu-west-1 (Ireland). Any client identifiable information should be discussed with the sales team.

Suggestion for Script to Create Log Bundles with ControlUp Infrastructure Servers
A user suggested creating a script to generate log bundles with logs from ControlUp infrastructure servers such as SBA, COP, IOP, etc. An example of such a script was AppSense-Support.vbs and this was used to successfully retrieve the logs. The ControlUp Script Library includes a script (https://www.controlup.com/script-library-posts/deploy-log4net-for-controlup-processes/) for generating log bundles for Cloud components, although it is more complicated to do so for on-prem components due to the large size of the logs.

ControlUp Agent and Remote DX Installation on an On-Premise Environment
A user asked about installing the ControlUp agent and Remote DX across an on-premise environment, with IGEL and Windows PCs as clients. In order to control both from the console, version 8.8 and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Smart-X\ControlUp\Console\EnableAgentManagement set to 1 are required. The Remote DX should be installed via SCCM, as per Microsoft's policy. Full details can be found on the ControlUp Support Upgrade Guide, linked here: https://support.controlup.com/v1/docs/upgrade-guide-for-hybrid-cloud-8-x-to-8-8#upgrade-controlup-agents.
