Description

The process name that hosts the VCS agent is VCSAgDriver.exe.

If you open Task Manager and move to detail tab, you can see multiple instances of VCSAgDriver.exe process and cannot identify which instance is hosting which agent type.

Solution

Add "Command Line" column. It shows agent type name as below.

For example, one can easily identify the agent type of a process that is consuming a large amount of system resources, such as private memory or CPU utilization.

Notes:
1. Only resource types with enabled resouces of that type will show in the list of running VCSAgDriver.exe processes.  If no resource of a given type are enabled, then there will not be an coorsponding VCSAgDriver.exe process for that resource type.

2. If you terminate one of the VCSAgDriver.exe processes, HAD will respawn a new VCSAgDriver.exe for that resource type. 

  Note: If the VCSAgDriver.exe process does not respawn after being terminated, run the following command in an administrator command prompt.  (Replace with the resource type that needs to be started and replace with the cluster node name where the agent type is to be started.)
