What is the recommended first action when troubleshooting a job failure in Tanium Connect?

Increasing the log verbosity for the connection is the recommended first action when troubleshooting a job failure in Tanium Connect because it allows for a more in-depth examination of what is happening behind the scenes during the job execution. By enhancing the amount of detail captured in logs, you can obtain additional context about the failure, which is crucial for diagnosing issues effectively. The extra log information can reveal errors, misconfigurations, or other underlying problems that may not be immediately evident.

This initial step is particularly useful as it provides insights into the specific conditions that led to the job failure, paving the way for informed next steps in the troubleshooting process. It allows system administrators to pinpoint the source of the problem before making any changes that could affect the connection or the data source itself, ensuring a more systematic and effective troubleshooting workflow.
