Approve Host Agents
After installation, each Host Agent appears as pending until a tenant administrator approves it. Approval links the host to your site and allows inventory uploads to Monozu Cloud.
Why approval is required
Section titled “Why approval is required”Approval prevents unauthorized hosts from joining your tenant when an enrollment key is misused or leaked. You verify hostname, site, and network identity before data enters the CMDB.
