    as a Troubleshooting i tried to check the Wincollect Event list from the Wincollect Tab into the Console I found this Error MSG in one of the Wincollect log sources as the Below So, kindly if anyone has saw this issue before or know ho to solve this issue kindly Inform me ASAP.
    Kindly Be informed that these MSGs was for one Wincollect LogSources and the Other logsources doesn't have the Same Error but with the Same NA Status.

    Thanks

    I'm getting this error when the wincollect agent fails to initiate the TCP connection to the Event Collector.

    Hi,

    i assume you've followed the prerequisits of installing the wincollect Agent on the selected Server. Check as well the recommendations for proper free disk Space.

    Troubleshooting wincollect requires some dependencies to consider..

    For further troubleshooting i recommend also wincollect 101 Pages. Another idea could be, to check or tune the amount of incomming events from the belonging logsource, in case of insuffizient disk space..

    Regards,

    Ralph
