Description

Resolution:
The suffix number at the end of the microagent can be understood as a "loaded version". The first time you start the Hawk agent, all the microagents get the initial version as 0.

1). In some cases, if  Hawk agent can not detect a microagent, it will remove this microagent from the list. Then, if Hawk agent can detect this microagent again, this microagent will be added again into the list and the "version" will be increased by 1, such as:  changed from 0 to 1, or from 1 to 2, etc.

2). You can easily reproduce the issue by restarting Hawk HMA or Hawk Event, you will see the version number increased.

3). On occasion, you can see duplicates of the same exact migroagents with a different suffix. This is a transient status. In this case, the "process:0" is already not usable and only "process:1" can be used. In fact, after some time interval, the Hawk Agent can not detect the old version and will remove it , "process:0" will disappear.

4). To reset the suffix of all microagents to 0, restart the Hawk Agent.
