Sync server monitoring

Description

Soffid provides a monitoring functionality to consult all the information of the different agents and the status of each one of them and the amount of tasks assigned. Consequently, it allows diagnosing possible incidents in a quick and easy way.

This option allows you to manage all the options related to the tasks created according to the configuration of each of the agents.
