A maintenance update for the Acronis Integration, caused a misconfiguration of the Agent Installation policy. This triggered the policy option to get disabled and uninstall the agent from the devices. We have fixed the configuration, and the changes will resolve and trigger the install of the agent on the devices. However, this could take a few hours to stabilize across your environment. We continue to monitor the issue to ensure that the stable state is achieved.
