Goverlan Scope
Actions
|
Once a scope action has been
executed, you can later choose to:
-
Re-run the scope action
and merge the output data.
If some machines couldn't be
queried and a scope action is
re-run, Goverlan updates the
output report with the latest
data while keeping your
historical data untouched.
-
Re-run on failed nodes
only. This mode
allows you to re-execute the
scope action only on the nodes
which failed during the last
execution.
Scope definition has been taken to a
new level by allowing dynamic sets.
The container's dynamic content is
compiled at execution time and not
during the scope definition.
For machine scopes, the following
dynamic sets are available:
- Active Directory Containers
- Active Directory Sites
- IP Range
- Object input file
Creating a Scope Action has never
been easier: Scope
Action v7 allows you to create Scope
templates and Action Module
templates. Templates are
subsequently available during the
definition of a new Scope Action or
Custom Action.
Additionally, templates can be
shared with your co-workers (this
feature requires the Application
Shared Data Directory to be
configured).
 Scope Action v7 has a
powerful new feature called Dynamic
Value Definition. Using this feature,
you can configure any Set or Execute
input parameter to be dynamic and
compiled during execution.
Dynamic input parameters can
include values of other attributes,
static text, Boolean operators and
numerical operators.
The Scope Action v7 introduces new
output settings:
- Automatically convert the
XML file to a report format of
choice once execution is
complete and open the report in
the chosen format.
- Run an external program
(this feature includes
substitution variables which can
be used in the command
parameters).
- Close the Execution window.
- Improved performance. It
takes less time to open the
properties of a scope action.
- Improved Actions &
Conditions definition UI. The
selection menu now displays
individual icons for each
object. The objects are now
sorted.
- Improved Execution Log
Analyzer.
- The list of available WMI
Objects can now be configured
directly from Goverlan.
- WMI Object Set and Execute
methods now converts the raw WMI
input parameters to friendly
formats.
- Improved HTML - Data Sheet
report format.
