Hourly Agent fails sporadically with Authentication Failed Errors
We have an agent failing sporadically and I'm trying to track down the cause.
It appears to some sort of authentication error.
Can any of you gurus tell what's failing to authenticate based on these errors?

Do you mean that the agent works on some occasions and on others, it fails with these errors? What version of OBIEE is this? What is the underlying data source? Have you checked the bi server log files for any possible data source errors?

Just check the logs:

The highlighted ones will give you the clue what is happening and why it's failing.

This was resolved by pointing OBI to a newer AD server and we also changed 'Group Membership Searching' to Off.
