Job Management Partner 1/Client Security Control Description, User's Guide and Operator's Guide

7.2.2 Excluding non-Windows machines from detection

The client security control system manages only network machines whose OS is Windows. It does not manage machines that run HP-UX, Solaris, and other non-Windows OSs.

If a non-Windows machine is detected as a non-Software Distribution host, an incorrect action might be performed on that machine. To prevent incorrect actions, specify the following settings during JP1/Software Distribution Manager setup so that those machines whose node type is Computer and whose OS is not Windows are not detected as non-Software Distribution hosts:

• Before non-Windows hosts can be excluded from non-Software Distribution detection, specify settings that will display the detection results under the Hold icon.
  For details about setting the non-Software Distribution host detection results to display below the Hold icon, see 5.2.2(1) Setting up to detect non-Software Distribution clients.
  

To exclude non-Windows machines from detection, perform the following operation:

• From the devices listed under the Hold icon displayed in the Detection of Hosts Not Containing Software Distribution dialog box, move all HP-UX, Solaris, and other non-Windows machines to the list of devices under the Non-detection icon.
  For details about how to exclude HP-UX, Solaris, and other non-Windows machines from non-Software Distribution detection, see the manual Job Management Partner 1/Software Distribution Setup Guide, for Windows systems.
  

Note that machines set to be excluded from detection as non-Software Distribution hosts are not displayed in the Client Security Management window.

Reference note

Network devices with a node type other than Computer, such as routers and printers, are automatically detected as Non-detection.

Note

For Windows machines, such as a server machine or an offline machine, that must be excluded from client security management, use the Client Security Management window to set the security management to Invalid. For details about how to disable security management, see 8.5.1 Disabling security management.
