How do I see which assets and/or accounts are governed by a profile

To see which assets and/or accounts are assigned to a profile, you must open the profile details window.

To view which assets or accounts are assigned to a partition profile

  1. In Partitions or Directories, switch to the Profiles tab.
  2. Select a profile and click (or tap) the Details icon.
  3. In the profile dialog, select the Scope tab which provides a list of the assets and accounts currently being governed by the selected profile.

How do I set the appliance system time

Note: Changing appliance time can result in unintended consequences with processes running on the appliance. For example, there could be a disruption of password check and change profiles and audit log timestamps could be misleading.

TIP: As a best practice, set an NTP server to eliminate possible time-related issues. For more information, see Time.

To set the time on your appliance

  • Use the appliance API to change the appliance time (SystemTime). For information about using the API, see How do I access the API.
