Agent Questions

So I've been playing around with the agent and I have some questions/concerns.

I created an automated deployment following the instructions from here. What I have found is computers that had the agent installed using this method show the service as PDQInventory-Scanner-1 with a start mode of manual. Any computer where I right click and select install agent, the service shows as PDQ Inventory Agent with a start mode of auto. Funny thing is, the computers with the start mode of manual will start the agent with no issue after a reboot, but the ones with an auto start mode do not start the agent after reboot. Am I doing something wrong here?

    It appears I have figured out one of the issues. PDQInventory-Scanner-1 is not the agent. Only after I scanned the machines did that service change to PDQ Inventory Agent.
