Resolution

goal
Does the DMA agent leave files on a machine after performing the agent task?

fact
Domain Migration Administrator 7.1

fix

When the DMA agent completes its task, the agent service stops by itself.  The Domain Migration Administrator Agent service will remain in the Service Control Manager and be set to Manual startup.

When Domain Migration Administrator dispatches an agent, it installs between 2 & 4 MB of agent files in the \Program Files\OnePointDomainAgent directory on the remote computer.   The agent files remain on the computer unless they are deleted manually.  If an agent is sent to the same computer for another task, the agent will only install the files that are needed, but shouldl not re-install files that are already there.  To remove the files, simply delete the \Program Files\OnePointDomainAgent directory after the agent has completed its task and the Domain Migration Administrator Agent service has stopped.
