Engines Policy Group

The Engines policy group contains the following engine policies. You can modify policy parameter values by double-clicking a policy to display the Setting Properties dialog.

Distribute SCAP checklists to Scalability Servers

Indicates whether compressed SCAP checklist files should be distributed to the scalability server as part of the engine collect task. If True, the DSM engine can run the task to push the checklists to the scalability servers.

Default: False

Use Trust Level for Inventory processing

Indicates whether a trust level value is used when inventory data is received by the engine for MDB processing. If True, the engine compares the incoming trust level of inventory items with the trust level of inventory items already stored in the database. If False, the engine collect job ignores the trust level and inserts the inventory data into the database.

Note: This parameter affects all engine instances running on the domain manager.

Default: True

Ignore replicated Intellisig if they are locally defined

Controls the behavior of the replication if the Intellisig definition was previously created locally at a domain manager. If you set this parameter to true, the master definition and details from the enterprise manager are not replicated. Otherwise, the master definition at the domain manager is updated by the definition from the enterprise manager. Its domain_uuid is changed to that of the source. The existing definition at the domain manager is updated. Any existing details of the master at the domain manager are deleted. The Intellisig details from the enterprise manager are replicated to the domain manager.

Default: False

Convert replicated Intellisigs on unlinking

Overrides the default behavior that deletes all replicated master Intellisig definitions and their details at the domain manager on unlinking. If you set this parameter to true, on unlinking, any replicated master Intellisig definition and details are converted at the domain manager as belonging to the domain manager. Namely, their domain_uuid is changed from that of the enterprise manager to that of the domain manager.

Default: False

Leave replicated software definitions

Specifies whether the replicated heuristic and Intellisig detected software definitions must be retained at the enterprise manager when the domain managers have removed them. If set to False, they are deleted at the enterprise manager when the last domain manager reports them as deleted.

Default: False

Leave unreferenced collected software definitions

Specifies if heuristic software definitions must be left undeleted at the domain manager, on an engine collect, when their last discovered software instance is deleted.

Default: False
