Issue/Introduction
After a successful installation of Agent 11.4 SP1 Agent on Linux Red Hat 7 in Azure environment, cannot connect to the Agent :
$ autoping -m machine-name
CAUAJM_I_50023 AutoPinging Machine [machine-name]
CAUAJM_E_10229 Communication attempt with the CA WAAE Agent has failed! [10.2.3.4:7520]
CAUAJM_E_50281 AutoPing from the Scheduler WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL.
CAUAJM_E_10229 Communication attempt with the CA WAAE Agent has failed! [10.2.3.4:7520]
CAUAJM_E_50283 AutoPing from the Application Server WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL.
CAUAJM_E_50026 ERROR: AutoPing WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL.
Environment
Release : 11.4 SP1
Component : WORKLOAD Agent
Resolution
We fixed several problems and now the Agent can communicate successfully with the AutoSys Server :
1. The Agent needed to be installed with a user key.
2. The required ports needed to be opened
3. The name resolution was not setup correctly for the newly installed Agent on the DNS Server.
We could find the following errors reported in the “transmitter.log” file of the Agent when trying to connect to the Scheduler :

cybermation.library.communications.CybConversationConnectException: Unknown host: server-hostname < ======
4. As a workaround solution, you can add the following line in the /etc/hosts file of the Agent node :
Ip-address-of-server hostname.domaine-name hostname
The encountered problem is resolved by applying the provided solutions. Jobs are completed successfully.
