Group linking
1 Overview
Groups are linked together to automate:
- The policy provisioning process;
- Actions that are available to run on the node; and
- Adding users to receive notifications from event exceptions.
Nodes put into the same node group automatically receives the same policies and actions that are linked to the node group.
Node groups are linked to actions groups for actions that are available to run on the nodes; Node groups are linked to policy groups for policies to be deployed to the nodes; and Policies are linked to user groups for notifications.
