Been trying to sort this out for my environment and may have found something worth while:
If I create a new agent, no matter the settings (so long as power management isnt used), The agent will install no problem. From this point forward however i can not change the agent or use the rebuild all option. once i do that my agents start failing to deploy with the above error.
So for me and my smaller environment i will just be careful for now until support can figure something out for me... I do have a case open and will post something here should they be able to assist me.
Thanks and good luck to all!
EDIT -- Just wanted to add that I have been working with support and we found that in my environment (YMMV) if you run a rebuild all from the gui it hoses the agents. However, if you run a rebuild all from the command line all is well. may be worth a shot if you haven't already tried that.
Good Luck!
