I would like to find out what is the difference between the active and passive checks on Win32 agent. Thank you.

The Glossary in the Wiki should help explain the differences. This applies to both *nix and win32 agents.

Would it be right to say that the passive agent uses less of the monitored server resources? What are the pros and cons of using the active mode?

Thank you.
