Additional Information

Please make sure WCC Server is able to communicate to Scheduler server by checking following from WCC server:

1. nslookup <Scheduler server>
2. telnet <Scheduler server> 9443

Now, Launch browser in WCC Server, run "https://xxxxxx:9443/AEWS/machine", specify the userID used for "Monitor ID" field when prompted. It should list all the machines details in xml format if there is no issue else would see a blank page. A blank page indicates the communication issue from Scheduler server to WCC Server.
