15.1.6 Assigning agent configurations

You can assign agent configurations to each group or computer. You can also cancel the assigned agent configurations.

By default, the default agent configuration is assigned. If agent configurations other than the default agent configuration assigned to a group or computer are canceled, the default agent configuration is instead assigned to them.

To assign agent configurations:

  1. Display the Settings module.

  2. In the menu area, select Agent, and then Windows Agent Configurations Assignment.

  3. To assign agent configurations to each group, select the target group at the top of the view, and then click the Assign button. To change a group configuration, click the Change Target Group Type button.

    To assign agent configurations to each computer, select the target computer at the bottom of the view, and then click the Assign button.

  4. In the displayed dialog box, select the agent configuration you want to assign, and then click OK.

  5. In the displayed dialog box, click OK.

Agent configuration is assigned to the selected group or computer.

To cancel assignment of agent configurations:

  1. Display the Settings module.

  2. In the menu area, select Agent, and then Windows Agent Configurations Assignment.

  3. To cancel agent configurations assigned to a group, select the target group at the top of the view, and then click the Assign Cancel button. To change a group, click the Change Target Group Type button.

    To cancel agent configurations assigned to a computer, select the target computer at the bottom of the view, and then click the Assign Cancel button.

  4. In the displayed dialog box, click OK.

    When canceling agent configuration assigned to a group, you can also choose to cancel the agent configuration for groups included in the selected group.

The agent configuration assigned to the group or computer is canceled. If you cancel assignment of agent configuration, the default agent configuration is assigned to the group or computer. Note that you cannot cancel the default agent configuration.

Tip

There are two types of agent configurations assignment: Direct or Indirect. If you assign agent configurations by selecting a group, the assignment is performed as Direct. For the groups and computers that are lower than the selected group, the assignment is performed as Indirect. If, however, agent configurations are already assigned as Direct to the lower groups or computers, Indirect assignment is not performed because Direct takes precedence.
