Customizing default host settings

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.

To customize default host settings

  1. In the Navigation view, select Data Governance | Managed hosts.

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

    The Customize default host settings dialog appears.

  3. At the top of the dialog, specify the following information: 

    1. Host Type: Select the host type from the drop-down menu:

      • Local Windows Computer
      • Windows Cluster/Remote Windows Computer
      • Generic Host Type
      • SharePoint Farm
      • EMC Celerra/VNX Device
      • EMC Isilon Device
      • NetApp OnTap 7-Mode CIFS Device
      • NetApp OnTap Cluster Mode CIFS Device
      • NetApp Cluster NFS Device
      • EMC Isilon NFS Device
      • NetApp 7-Mode NFS Device
      • SharePoint Online
      • OneDrive for Business

    2. Agent Install Path: Use this field if you want to specify an alternate installation location. This must be a local path (for example, C:\MyPath) and cannot exceed 512 characters.

    3. Keywords: Use this field if you want to specify a keyword to be assigned to newly managed hosts, which can be used for sorting and grouping on the Managed hosts view.
  4. Use the Security Scanning page to define the default scanning schedule and settings. For more information, see Security Scanning page.

  5. Use the Resource Activity page to define the resource activity collection and aggregation settings. For more information, see Resource activity page.

    Note: Resource activity collection is not available for the following host types:

    • Windows Cluster/Remote Windows Computer
    • Generic Host Type
    • EMC Isilon NFS Device
    • SharePoint Online
    • OneDrive for Business
  6. Repeat steps 3 - 5 for any additional host types that require custom default settings.

  7. If necessary, click the Restore Factory Defaults button to reset all changed settings back to the factory defaults.

    Note: Clicking the Restore Factory Defaults button resets all custom default settings back to the factory default settings for all managed host types.

  8. Click OK to save your selections and close the dialog.

All managed hosts of the selected host type that are added in the future will use these customized default settings.

Customize default host settings dialog

Use the Customize default host settings dialog to view or modify the default configuration settings to be used when adding new managed host. Using this dialog, you can set the default installation directory, resource activity settings and security scanning settings based on host type. This dialog appears when you select the Customize default host settings task or right-click command from the Managed hosts view in the Manager.

This dialog contains the following controls:

Agent Install Path

By default, the agent is installed in the Data Governance Server installation directory (%ProgramFiles%\One Identity\One Identity Manager Data Governance Edition\Agent Services). However, you can use this field to specify an alternate default agent installation for all new agent deployments of the selected type. To specify an alternate default installation directory, enter a local path (for example C:\Mypath) that does not exceed 512 characters.

NOTE: If there is an existing agent on the machine, you cannot install another agent with a different installation directory. All agents must be installed in the same directory.

NOTE: You can also use the following registry key to specify an alternate default directory for all new agent deployments: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\One Identity\Broadway\Server\GlobalAgentInstallLocation. For more information on this registry setting, see the One Identity Manager Data Governance Edition Technical Insight Guide.

Keywords (Optional) Enter a keyword which can then be displayed and used to group your managed hosts on the Managed hosts view.
