I am using the DAI site to distribute my test into another machine. How I can monitor/watch the execution during the run? I can see it just disconnects the RDP machine which I have connected and not sure how to watch it to analyze if any issues apart from the screenshots/logs, etc.

The script works perfectly fine when I run locally in the same machine but when I run from the DAI site, it is not running as expected; not sure if the machine is too slow or any adjustments to be made. To analyze that I need to see exactly what is happening during the execution on that machine.

I am using recording the video with StartMovie/StopMovie to check the issue for now.  
Any inputs here.

You can run the Agent from the Command Line and set the --gui argument to TRUE. More on that here: [Running the Agent in Command Line Mode (DAI Run Agent) | DAI](https://docs.eggplantsoftware.com/dai/dai-run-agent/#simple-example-of-running-the-dai-run-agent)

To watch execution live without interrupting RDP sessions, run the execution agent as a interactive desktop user or set up VNC / team viewer streaming instead of default headless
