this file indicates a successful registration of the trusted host.

Ensure that the host where the Agent is installed and has been registered as
a trusted host.
Make sure the Agent Configuration Object has a DefaultAgentName
specified. Also, ensure that the minimum required parameters are
configured for your particular web server.
