Download Agent Installer

This operation takes you to our website where you can download the PeerLink Agent installer compatible with this version of the PeerLink Hub.

Retrieve Hub & Agent Logs

This operation will collect and retrieve all useful log files for specified PeerLink Agents, the PeerLink Hub, and all configured jobs. All of this information will be assembled in a single zip file that can optionally be uploaded to our technical support Amazon Web Services account. The collection and retrieval of the log and support files will be performed in the background which might take awhile depending on content size and network speed. Upon completion, you will be notified and will be able to view the zip file yourself.

Retrieve Broker Statistics

This will display detailed statistical information about all messaging that has transpired for all connections (PeerLink Agents and the PeerLink Hub) to the PeerLink Broker.

Generate Thread Dump File

This will generate a thread dump of the running PeerLink Hub Client and Service which can be used by our technical support to debug certain issues.
