Machine gets logged off when its specified robot is stopped
Hi,
Here is my issue. When I stop the robot from Pega Robot Manager portal, the machine where it is configured is getting logged off. And Pega Runtime is also stopped.
In order to restart the robot, I have to manually turn on the machine and launch the Pega Runtime.
Is there a workaround for this?
TIA

Hi,
This is a default behavior if you stop your bot from Pega Robot Manager Portal.
To avoid this either of the two options would work for you.
First one is very obvious to stop the bot from Virtual Machine itself by exiting the Pega Runtime application from tray icon menu.
Second option is install Pega RPA Service in your virtual machine and set the mode to "OnDemand" in RPAService.config file.
With this you would enable the functionality to "Start" the bot on demand from the Robot Manager Portal.

even in cas of Pega RPA Service -
- the RPA SAS will signOut / logoff from the machine
- when issued Start" from Robot Manager - the window service logs into the VM, with Credentials provided in CredMgr
expected behaviour - stop from Pega Robot Manager :
- Pega Runtime will be terminated
- the machine will get logged off
