Controlling the System Image › Define a System Image

Define a System Image

A system image must be defined for your CA NetMaster FTM region. All resources that are monitored and controlled by your region are defined to the system image. You can define many versions of system images in your CA NetMaster FTM region, of which only one can be active at any one time.

Note: One system image is required for each CA NetMaster FTM region. If you are defining a system image for a subordinate, use the name assigned during the multisystem linking process.
