Packages need to be assigned before they will be used by a computer. You can assigned to the following:
•All computers (= global assignments)
•One or more groups
•One or more computers
The EventSentry management console lets you assign packages either by right-clicking the actual packages, or by right-clicking the group or computer objects. This gives you more flexibility when configuring and working with packages.
|
Packages can also be assigned automatically, either depending on one or more installed service(s), or depending on the operating system of the monitored host. |
Setting packages to be global
To configure a package as global and apply to all computers you can:
•Right-click the package and select "Global".
•Right-click the package and select "Edit" which will bring you to the package options. There, check the "Global Package" checkbox which will change the package icon accordingly.
•Right-click the "Computer Groups" container and select "Assign Package(s) ...". From this dialog you can toggle the Global flag for more than one package at one time.
