7. To verify that AppAssure 5 can connect to each machine successfully, select each
machine in the Deploy Agent to Machines window, and then click Verify.
The Deploy Agent on Machines window shows an icon next to each machine that
reflects its readiness for deployment, as follows:
 Green icon - AppAssure 5 is able to connect to the machine and it is ready to be
deployed.
 Yellow icon - AppAssure 5 is able to connect to the machine; however, the
AppAssure 5 Agent on the machine is already paired with an AppAssure 5 Core.
 Red icon - AppAssure 5 cannot connect to the machine. This may be because the
logon credentials are incorrect, the machine is shut down, the firewall is blocking
traffic, or another problem. To correct, click Edit Settings on the toolbar or the
Edit link next to the machine.
