Defining default host settings for each type of managed host is now available through the Manager. Using the Customize default host settings task in the Manager, you can define the default scanning schedule and settings and the default resource activity collection and aggregation settings for the selected managed host type. Once customized default settings are defined, they are used when adding new managed hosts to the Data Governance Edition deployment.
Note: Currently managed hosts are not affected by the default host setting changes made on this dialog; only those added in the future use the settings defined here.

Select the Customize default host settings from the Tasks view or right-click menu.
