Description
Appliance no longer registering or deleting devices that have been enrolled or deleted in Airwatch.  Test Communication succeeds but polling fails.  Administration UI displays a 429 error when attempting to "Poll Now".

Example from Network Sentry output.master log:
AirWatchServer: HTTPException(status code = 429)

A 429 error code indicates the Airwatch device has received too many requests from the appliance in a given amount of time.  This results in the Airwatch device no longer responding to any additional requests.

Scope
Version: 8.x and above.

Solution
There are 2 settings in Airwatch that can be modified.  Contact Airwatch support for assistance.
  • The maximum allowed number of calls that can be polled per minute can be overridden. Remove the overridden maximum value.
  • Increase the number of polls that can be made.

Configure the appliance to perform less queries.
Navigate to System > Settings > MDM Services (8.x) or Network > Service Connectors (9.x) and modify the below settings:
  • Disable Application Updating.
  • Change Automatic Registration Polling to 1 per Day.
  • Disable Revalidate Health Status on Connect.
