Service status and verification
Alright, so we've made it to the final part of the chapter. I wish there was a lot more to talk about, but it's quite easy to verify whether the service is running; however, we'll cover them all. First off, we'll check the local services, via services.msc or however you like to launch it. Both the sensor and updater should be running. Of course, right after installation, they'll cycle a few times until they are settled on the credentials they can use, as well as some other self-checks. Once that settles, you'll see a steady Running state in the following portal:

We can check the senor in the portal as well; here, we see it Healthy and in a Running state. The health status is what you want to look at for any communication issues.
