Which statement best summarises correct agent deployment practice?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Right hosts, sensors on, reporting confirmed. You can't call it done until you've checked the agents are actually reporting to the backend.
Full Explanation
The correct statement is the one that places agents on the hosts whose telemetry is required, leaves the relevant sensors enabled, and confirms each agent is reporting to the backend. Placement determines what can be collected, enabled sensors determine what is actually collected, and verification determines whether it reaches the backend.
The approach of placing agents on a small number of representative hosts and inferring the rest is incorrect because sampling leaves hosts unmonitored, and problems are rarely confined to sampled hosts.
The approach of placing agents everywhere and relying on installer exit codes is incorrect because exit codes report local installation only and cannot demonstrate connectivity.
The approach of placing agents everywhere with sensors disabled, enabling them after coverage, is incorrect because it produces present but useless agents until a second pass that is easily forgotten.
For the exam, state placement, sensor enablement, and verification together.
