Hello, me again hehehehe

I have a new error when installing an agent, although I found related documentation I would like to please confirm me if I understood the solution if I simply run the following lines

**Solve the problem** [[Fleet]: On enrolling RPM and Deb agents, `Restarting agent failed` error is displayed in CLI. · Issue #4084 · elastic/elastic-agent · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/elastic-agent/issues/4084)

```auto
sudo systemctl enable elastic-agent 
sudo systemctl start elastic-agent

```

**Error**

```auto

**Note:** if you wonder why I open a thread to ask something that supposedly I already have the solution is for 2 reasons, 1. I want it to be documented in the forum in case someone else finds the solution and 2. because I have to ask whoever administers the server to run that possible solution and that's why I want to make sure with your help.

**Note2:** this text has been translated, sorry for the errors in the text.
