Defining a monitoring policy
You can define the monitoring criteria in policies and then apply them to the PATROL Agents. When you modify a policy, all the changes are automatically pushed to the PATROL Agents on which the policy is already applied.
Ensure that you have the required permissions to define and manage monitoring policies. For details, see Configuring Infrastructure Management to monitor and manage your infrastructure systems.
When a monitoring policy is applied to a PATROL Agent, the device or server that hosts the Agent is automatically added to the list of monitored devices.
The following video (8:14) explains how to define or create a monitoring policy.

- In the navigation pane, expand Configuration and select Infrastructure Policies.
- In the Infrastructure Policies page, ensure that the Monitoring tab is selected and click Create Policy.
In the Create Monitoring Policy page, specify the monitoring policy properties:
Define the general properties.
Select PATROL Agents.
c. Specify values in at least one of the configuration tabs and click Save.
Add and configure monitor types to a monitoring solution
You can add and configure monitor types for the compatible PATROL monitoring solutions that are located in the Deployable Package Repository. For a list of monitoring solutions and monitor types that you can configure, see List of Monitoring Solutions and KMs in Operations Management. To configure custom monitoring solutions, ensure the solution is structured correctly; for details, see Developing a PATROL Knowledge Module .
Ensure that the Monitoring tab is selected. By default, this tab is selected. If not, click it.
Click Add Monitoring Configuration.
In the Add Monitoring Configuration dialog box, configure the following properties:
Property Description Monitoring Solution Name of the monitoring solution. A solution can have many Knowledge Modules (KMs) under it. Version Version of the selected monitoring solution.
Note: With version 11.3.03, while editing a policy, you can change the version. After you change the Monitoring Solution version to the latest version, you cannot restore it to the earlier version. Therefore, after changing the version, at the time of saving the policy, you are prompted to create a copy of the policy. By creating a copy, you can preserve the earlier version.
The copy of the policy is saved with the name: <policyName> - (Solution version changed, Backup-YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS). For example, WinMonitor - (Solution version changed, Backup-2019-6-4 12:42:17). Additionally, the backup copy of the policy is disabled.For data collection to be successful, you must ensure that the PATROL Agent is using the latest version selected. If there is a mismatch of version between the PATROL Agent and the policy, you might face collecting issues.
To understand the end-to-end process involved in upgrading the monitoring solution version, see Upgrading the monitoring solution version.
Monitor Profile Name of the monitor profile to which the monitor types that you want to enable are associated.
Each solution contains multiple monitoring profiles that help to reduce unnecessary monitoring. Each monitoring profile is associated with a group of monitor types. If a profile has monitor types that require you to enter information, they are listed in the Monitor type list, and you can configure them. If the profile has no monitor types that require input, all the monitor types are enabled by default and the Monitor Type list is disabled. To view all the monitor types that belong to a selected profile, click the Click to view Monitor Types option.
The monitor types that belong to a profile are pre-determined. You cannot add or remove them from a profile.Monitor Type Name of the monitor type that you want to configure. You can select one from the list:
- All - All the monitor types will have default values.
Monitor type other than All - You must configure the monitor type. The configuration options vary depending on the monitor type that you select.
To know the list of monitor types that are loaded on the Agent, click the Information icon .
Tip: For documentation or more information about a monitor profile or monitor type, click the Help icon next to the list. The online documentation for that monitor type is displayed.
Other configuration options Specify values for additional configuration options. These options vary depending on the monitoring solution, monitor profile, and monitor type that you selected. Tip: For information about an option, move the mouse over the option to view the tooltip. The following figure shows the Add Monitoring Configuration dialog box with sample data. Also, you can see the tooltip that provides helpful information about the Exclude Criteria option.
- Click any of the following:
- OK and Close to exit the dialog box. The configured monitor type is added as a new row in the Monitoring tab. The selected monitor type is updated if it already exists in the Monitoring configuration.
- OK to stay on the dialog box and configure another monitor type. The configured monitor types are added or updated in the Monitoring configuration.
- Cancel to exit the dialog box without saving the changes.
- To modify the monitoring configuration, click the action menu for that configuration and select Edit. Modify the configuration and click OK. The edit option is not displayed if the Monitor Type is All.
To clone the monitoring configuration, click the action menu and select Clone. Modify the new configuration to make it unique, and click OK.
Note
The Clone option is not available for descendants of the monitoring configuration. It is only available at the top level.
- To delete a monitoring configuration, click the action menu for that configuration and select Delete. After you save the policy, the deleted monitor type configuration is removed from the selected PATROL Agents.
After you save or update a policy, the monitor type configurations are pushed to the selected PATROL Agents
Configure filters to include or exclude data and events
After you configure the monitor types in the PATROL Agents, they send the collected data and the generated events to the Infrastructure Management server. You can configure filters to restrict or allow data and events to be sent to the Infrastructure Management server. Unlike in blackout policies, when you apply filters in a monitoring policy, the data collection and event generation continues on the PATROL Agent.
You can configure the following types of filters:
- Attribute-level filter - When you apply this filter, only the instance information is sent to the TrueSight Infrastructure Management server. Information about the attributes of the instance is not sent to the TrueSight Infrastructure Management server.
Instance-level filter - When you apply this filter, information about both attributes and instances is not sent to the TrueSight Infrastructure Management server. If you have instances in a parent-child hierarchy, you must configure instance-level filters separately for each sub-node of the parent and child.
Note
The instance-level filter is available for the PATROL Agent version 10.7 or later. The instance filtering policies are ignored on any earlier version of the PATROL Agent.
A PATROL Agent applies a filtering policy during the next scheduled discovery or collection of a PATROL object (monitor type or attribute). That is, filtering is applied when the first collection occurs on the PATROL object after filtering rules are applied. Due to this behavior, there might be a delay in the deployment of the filtering rules on the PATROL object.
Best practice
- BMC does not recommend that you send both performance data and events for the same parameter to the Infrastructure Management server. If you are sending performance data for a parameter, configure thresholds in the Infrastructure Management server for that parameter and let the Infrastructure Management sever generate events for it.
- Certain types of parameters must have only performance data sent to the Infrastructure Management server from the PATROL Agents; they must not have events sent. Other types of parameters must only have events sent to the Infrastructure Management server from the PATROL Agents, with no performance data sent.
Based on parameter usage, ensure that you store data for and configure the following parameters in the Infrastructure Management server database:- KPI parameters
- Parameters required in performance reporting
- Parameters requiring “duration” thresholds. For example, you do not want an event unless the parameter has breached a threshold for 15 minutes. (PATROL Agent does not support this capability.)
- Parameters requiring “time of day” type thresholds. (This is accomplished using baselines.)
- Parameters for which predictive event generation and abnormality detection are required. This generally applies to all KPIs, which can be extended.
- BMC recommends that you apply the instance filtering policy before applying any other policy on the PATROL agent.
Complete the following steps to configure filters:
- Click the Filtering tab.
- Select one of the following options:
- Agent Level: Filters data and events from the PATROL Agent. Select an appropriate filtering option from the list.
- Monitor Type Level: Filters information from a specific monitor type. To specify the monitor type:
- Click Add Monitor Type.
- In the Add Monitor Type dialog box, select a solution and its version.
- Select a related monitor type from the list.
- In Scope, select one of the following options:
- If you want to specifically filter data and events from an attribute, select Attribute, and then select an attribute from the Monitor Attribute list. The default value is All.
If you want to specifically filter data and events from an instance on the PATROL agent, select Instance, and then enter the instance name in the Instance SID field. By default, the Monitor Attribute is set to All.
Tip
The instance SID is not the monitoring instance name that is displayed in the Truesight console.
For the Instance SID field, you can also use a regular expression.
If you want to use a regular expression, select the Is a Regular Expression check box.Note
The value for the matches property must be a strict regular expression. Some examples of regular expressions that can be used:
- CPU_0 -- To select Agents that match the exact string "CPU_0"
- .*?CPU_0.* -- To select Agents that match the sub-string "CPU_0"
- ^((?!clm-pun).)*$ -- To select Agents that do not match the sub-string "clm-pun"
Select a filtering option according to the following table:
Options for filtering attributes Options for filtering instances - Send data and events: No Filter.
- Send only data: Filter out events.
- Send only events: Filter out data.
- Agent-side collection only: Filter out data and events. PATROL Agent continues with the data collection, but data and events are not sent.
- Deactivate agent-side collection: PATROL Agent stops the data collection and doesn't send data and events.
- Send data and events: No filter. Create instances, send events, and send data.
- Send only data: Create instances, send data, no events.
- Send only events: Suppress instances, send events, no data.
- Agent-side collection only: PATROL Agent continues with the data collection. Suppress instances, no events, no data.
- Deactivate agent-side collection: PATROL Agent stops the data collection.
Click any of the following:
- OK and Close to exit the dialog box. The monitor type with selected attribute and filter option is added or updated to the table in the Filtering configuration.
- OK to stay on the dialog box and configure filter option for another monitor attribute.
- Cancel to exit the dialog box without saving the changes.
- To modify the properties of an existing filter level for Monitor Type Level option, click the action menu for that filter and click Edit.
- To delete a configured monitor type level for Monitor Type Level option, click the action menu for that level and click Delete.
Configure polling intervals
Specify the time interval between two consecutive data polls. You need to specify a separate poll interval for every parameter.
- Click the Polling Intervals tab.
- Add a polling interval:
- Click Add Polling Interval.
Select values for the following options:
- Monitoring Solution
- Version
- Monitor Type
- Parameter
- Parameter Polling Interval
- Click any of the following:
- OK and Close to exit the dialog box. The monitor type with selected parameter and polling interval is added or updated to the table in the Polling Interval tab.
- OK to stay on the dialog box and configure polling interval for another monitor parameter.
- Cancel to exit the dialog box without saving the changes.
- To modify the properties of a polling interval: Click the action menu associated with that polling interval, and select Edit.
- To delete a polling interval: Click the action menu associated with that polling interval and select Delete.
Define thresholds on PATROL Agents
Configure range-based thresholds for attributes of a monitor type on the PATROL Agents. You can specify whether the thresholds apply to a monitor type or to an instance of a monitor type.
Best practice
- Click the Agent Threshold tab.
Specify values for the following properties:
Property Description Monitoring Solution Monitoring solution Version Version of the monitoring solution Monitor Type Monitor type Scope Scope of the threshold. Select one of the following options:
- Type: The threshold applies to all instances of the monitor type.
Instance: The threshold applies to specific instances of the monitor type. To identify the instance, specify the instance ID in the Instance SID box.
If you want to specify multiple SIDs, you can use regular expressions to search for multiple matching instance SIDs. If you use regular expressions to search for the matching instance SIDs, ensure that you have selected Is a Regular Expression.
Monitor Attribute Monitoring attribute Threshold Ranges: Configure border and threshold ranges for the selected monitor attribute.
For Border Threshold, Threshold 1, and Threshold 2: Enable Select this check box for the type of threshold that you want to configure. Min, Max Minimum and maximum values for the range.Note
- For threshold 1 range: The minimum value of the border range must be less than or equal to the minimum value of the threshold 1 range.
- For threshold 2 range: The maximum value of the border range must be greater than or equal to the maximum value of the threshold 2 range.
- If the minimum and maximum values of threshold 1 are equal to those of the border threshold values, then threshold 2 is not used because threshold 1 uses the entire range of border threshold.
Select Event Severity Severity type to be associated with the event. Select one of the following options:
- OK
- Warning
- Critical
When the configured threshold is violated, the triggered event is of the selected severity.
Trigger an Event Condition to trigger an event. Select one of the following options:
- Immediately on threshold violation: Triggers an event immediately after a threshold violation.
- After threshold violation occurs N times: Triggers an event after the threshold is violated after the specified (N) number of times. Ensure that you specify a value greater than 0 in the N box.
- After all auto-recovery actions fail: Triggers an event after the recovery actions that are configured at the PATROL Agent fail.
- Click any of the following:
- OK and Close to exit the dialog box. The monitor type with selected attribute and threshold options is added or updated to the table in the Agent Threshold tab.
- OK to stay on the dialog box and configure thresholds for another monitor attribute.
- Cancel to exit the dialog box without saving the changes.
Create server-level instance thresholds
You can create thresholds for the monitor instances on the Infrastructure Management server. For information about the types of thresholds, see Server thresholds, KPIs, and baselines.
Best practice
- Ensure that you complete the monitoring configuration before you configure the Infrastructure Management server thresholds because thresholds cannot be applied to monitors that are not configured.
- Define global thresholds for KPIs and performance parameters in the Infrastructure Management server before you define the server and agent thresholds. Server thresholds override global thresholds.
- Use server thresholds for instance-level thresholds.
To configure the server thresholds:
- Click the Server Threshold tab.
- Click Add Server Threshold.
Specify values for the following properties:
Option Description Monitoring Solution Name of the monitoring solution. A solution can have many Knowledge Modules (KMs) under it. Version Version of the monitoring solution. Monitor Type A list of monitor types for the selected solution. Monitor Instance Name Name of the monitor instance. Depending on your requirement, specify the monitor instance information in one of the following formats:
Name of the monitor instance.
Note: If the Monitor Instance Name includes a space or parentheses (), you must use a backslash (\) as an escape character before the space or the parentheses. For example, specify Linux\ CPU instead of Linux CPU or specify LogicalDisk\(C:\) instead of LogicalDisk(C:).
Regular expression that can match multiple monitor instances.
Name of the monitor instance along with the associated device name, in the format, deviceName/instanceName.
You need to additionally select the Associate with a Device check box. By selecting this check box, you can apply the server threshold to a specific instance on a specific device. Doing this can prevent the threshold from being applied on all instances that might have the same name on different devices.
- Complete path to the monitor instance in the format, deviceName/monitorType/instanceName.
Specifying the complete path can be useful in a scenario when you want to apply the server threshold on a unique instance. Multiple instances with the same name can be associated with the same device name. Specifying the instance name only or specifying the device name with instance name can result in the server threshold getting applied on all the instances associated with the device.
Example: Suppose the monitor instance, TEMP is configured in your environment in the following way:-
WinOraclePADevice\Oracle Database Instance\InstanceSID1\TEMP
-
WinOraclePADevice\Oracle Database Instance\InstanceSID2\TEMP
- TEMP refers to the instance name.
- WinOraclePADevice refers to the device name.
- Oracle Database Instance\InstanceSID1 and Oracle Database Instance\InstanceSID2 refer to the monitor type.
-
Monitor Attribute Monitor attributeNote: Some monitoring attributes are designated as key performance indicators (KPIs). Depending on the monitored environment and version, the list of KPIs might appear differently in the operator console.Threshold: Configure the threshold parameters for the threshold type that you have selected. You can select either of the following types: Absolute, Signature, and Abnormality.
Threshold types
Parameter Description Absolute, Signature Severity Severity type to be associated with the event. Select one of the following options:
- Minor
- Major
- Critical
When the configured threshold is breached, the triggered event is of the selected severity.
Absolute, Signature, Abnormality Duration Duration of time (in minutes) for which the data values must continue to breach the threshold, before an event is generated. By specifying this parameter, you can reduce the number of events generated by an absolute threshold.
Example: You can specify that the attribute data value must remain above the baseline for 10 minutes before an event is generated.Threshold Value An absolute value that is above and beyond the baseline value. If you set a threshold, an abnormality will be generated only when it violates both the set baseline and the threshold value. Outside Baseline Type Type of baseline. Select one of the following options:
- Not Enabled
- Auto
- Hourly
- Daily
- Weekly
- Hourly and Daily
- All
Absolute Comparison A comparison operator to specify when a breach occurs. You can specify when the data value is greater than, less than, greater than or equal to, less than or equal to, or equal to the specified threshold value. Generate Predictive Event Select the check box if you want an early-warning predictive event to be generated 2-3 hours before the absolute threshold is breached. This enables you to get some lead time to take an action, if required. Auto Close Events Select the check box to specify that the events generated by a breach of the threshold be automatically closed if the data values that are collected are not breaching the threshold anymore. If you do not select this option, you can manually close such events in the TrueSight console. Signature, Abnormality Above/Below Threshold Select Above or Below depending on whether the collected data values must be above or below a threshold before an event is generated. Minimum Sampling Window The number of data points that must be collected or the amount of time that must pass (depending on the attribute) before an event is generated. At least five data points are required before an event is generated for any threshold type. If your minimum sampling window is set too small to allow at least 5 data points, then Infrastructure Management will wait until five data points have been collected before generating the event, regardless of the value entered into the sampling window.
Example for abnormality threshold:
If you set a minimum sampling window to 10 minutes on a specific monitor attribute but the polling rate of that monitor is 5 minutes, 25 minutes must pass before an abnormality is generated. For this reason, BMC recommends to use lower polling rates for monitors.Absolute Deviation (%) An absolute number above or below a baseline that the collected data values must reach before an event is generated.
Example for abnormality threshold:
For example, if you set a daily abnormality threshold for the Total Number of Disk I/O Request attribute for the VMware Disk Performance monitor type, and you set the absolute deviation to 3, then an abnormality event would not be generated until the Daily baseline for the total number of VMware disk I/O requests plus three additional requests had been made. If the Daily baseline for VMware disk I/O requests was 45, then an abnormality event would be generated when 48 VMware disk I/O requests were made.Percent Deviation (%) The percent of the baseline above or below the baseline that the collected data values must reach before an event is generated.
Example for abnormality threshold:
If you set a hourly abnormality threshold for for the Average Disk Throughput attribute for the VMware Disk Performance monitor type, and you set the percentage deviation to 10, then an abnormality event would not be generated until the value of the data collected reached the Hourly baseline for the average VMware disk throughput plus an additional 10 percent of the baseline value. If the Hourly baseline for average VMware disk throughput was 2500 KB per second, then an abnormality event would be generated when the VMware disk throughput became 2750 KB per second- Click any of the following:
- OK and Close to exit the dialog box. The monitor type with selected attribute and threshold options for a given instance is added or updated to the table in the Server Threshold tab.
- OK to stay on the dialog box and configure thresholds for another monitor attribute or instance.
- Cancel to exit the dialog box without saving the changes.
- To modify parameters of a threshold, click the action menu for that threshold and select Edit.
- To remove a threshold, click the action menu for that threshold and select Delete. After you save the policy, the deleted threshold configurations are removed from the selected PATROL Agents.
After you save or update a policy, the new threshold configurations are pushed to the selected PATROL Agents.
Configure PATROL Agents
You can configure the properties of a PATROL Agent and specify the action that the Agent must perform when the policy is applied.
For more information, see Specifying objects in an authorization profile .
Click the Agent tab.
Specify the following properties:
Property | Description |
---|---|
Agent Default Account | |
User Name | The user name that you want to use to run the PATROL Agent. The user name must have access permissions to the PATROL Agent directory. Note: You need to provide an Agent user name and password only if they are different from what was previously configured. |
Password | Password for the specified user name |
Confirm Password | Password for the specified user name |
Restart Agent | Select this check box if you want to restart the PATROL Agent after the policy is applied. Note You must select this check box if you want the user name change to take effect.
|
Tag | Tags that you want to assign to the PATROL Agent. The format of each tag is tagName:tagDescription. If the tag description contains spaces, enclose the description within double quotes. You can also provide multiple tags, separated by commas. Note: The tag (name:description) cannot contains special characters such as, comma (,), single quotation marks ('), double quotation marks ("), ampersand (&), angle brackets (< >), pipe (|), and braces ({ }). |
Integration Service | An Integration Service or an Integration Service cluster that you want to set as the PATROL Agent phone home. The supported values are as follows:
|
Event Configuration Properties | |
Event Forwarding Destination | Destination where the events that are generated by the PATROL Agents must be sent to. The supported destinations are as follows:
|
Event Format Container | String to append to the name of the events that are generated by the PATROL Agents. The default string is BiiP3. |
Configure actions performed by Infrastructure Management server
Specify actions to be performed on the Infrastructure Management server when the policy is applied. The actions apply to all devices that are associated with the PATROL Agent and all the monitor instances that the Agent monitors.
Best practice
- Do not use the automated group creation functionality excessively. Plan the groups that you need and configure accordingly.
- Use the copy baseline feature only when you know the existing baseline is appropriate for a new Agent or device. For example, if you are adding an additional server to an Apache web server farm behind a load balancer where the new server has exactly the same configuration as the other servers in the farm (OS version, machine sizing and type, Apache version, Apache configuration) and the new Apache web server processes exactly the same types of transactions for the same application. If you are not certain, do not use the copy baseline feature.
- Click the Server tab.
- Specify values for the following properties:
Property | Description |
---|---|
Add Agent Monitors to Group | Name of a group on the Infrastructure Management server under which you want to add the monitors that are created as a result of this policy. You can provide multiple group names, separated by commas. If a group does not exist, a new group is created. Use a forward slash (/) to specify a group in a hierarchy. For example, server/device1/myGroup. If more than one group exists with the same name and a distinct hierarchy is not specified, monitor instances are not added to the group. The group names are case sensitive. |
Add Associated Devices to Group | Select the check box to add all devices associated with the Agent monitors to the group specified in the Add Agent Monitors to Group field. If multiple groups are specified in the Add Agent Monitors to Group field, all the associated devices are added automatically to all the groups. Note This field is applicable and is functional only when you have a TrueSight Infrastructure Manager Server 10.5 or later in your environment. The devices from TrueSight Infrastructure Manager Server 10.1 and 10.0 are not added to the group even if this flag is selected. |
Copy Baseline from Device | Display name of the device from which you want to copy the baseline. |
Associate Authorization Profiles with Devices |
Name of the authorization profile to associate with the devices that are created as a result of the policy. Authorization profiles provide role-based access control by associating users who belong to one or more user groups with specific roles and objects. The default authorization profiles are created during the installation of the TrueSight Presentation Server component. Devices are associated with the specified authorization profile only if the authorization profile is available on the Presentation Server. You can provide multiple authorization profile names, separated by commas. The authorization profile names are case sensitive. If you want to disassociate the devices from the authorization profiles after a policy is disabled or deleted, use the Authorization Profiles page in the TrueSight console and remove each device from the authorization profile. |
Define and manage configuration variables
You can define individual configuration variables or import them from a ruleset file (.cfg).
The PATROL Agent configuration is saved in a set of configuration variables that are stored in the Agent's configuration database. You can control the PATROL Agent configuration by changing the values of these configuration variables.
Also, you can define a configuration variable, and the definitions are set on PATROL Agent when the policy is applied. Configuration variables that are defined on PATROL agents are retained even after disabling the policy. To delete the configuration variables, you must purge the PATROL Agent by using the following command:
pconfig +PURGE -p <port> -host <hostname>
By using this command, the configuration variable values of the PATROL Agent are restored to the default state, and the PATROL agent does not retain the previous configuration after an installation or an upgrade.
You can also remove the variables by using the Add Configuration Variable dialog box.
Note
To view the configuration variables that are available in the previous PATROL Agent versions, use the Query Agent functionality.
If you are modifying the default Agent configuration, you must restart the PATROL Agent to reflect the changes.
Best practice
- Avoid creating a policy with both monitoring configuration and a configuration variable. You can create separate policies for monitoring configuration and configuration variables.
- To keep the PATROL Agent in sync with the policy configuration, change an existing configuration variable's operation to DELVAR, instead of deleting it. After a configuration variable is deleted from the policy, you cannot perform any actions on it.
To import existing configuration variables
- In the Configuration Variable page, click the common action menu in the table and select Import.
- Browse for and select the configuration file (.cfg) to be imported.
- Click Open. The variables from the file are added to the table.
Note
The import operation supports only REPLACE, DELETE, and DELVAR operators. If the .cfg file contains the MERGE or APPEND operators, the file cannot be imported. You must delete these operators before importing the file.
To add new configuration variables
- Click Add Configuration Variable.
In the Add Configuration Variable dialog box, specify values for the following properties and click OK:
Property Description Variable Name for the configuration variable.
Important: The variable names are case sensitive and must start with slash (/). You must enter the complete path for the variable, not just the name. If the intermediate variables do not exist, the variables are created.Operation Operation that you want to perform on the configuration variable. The supported operations are as follows: REPLACE: Replaces the current value of the variable on the PATROL Agent if the variable already exists. Otherwise, a new variable is created with the specified value.
DELVAR: Deletes the variable from the PATROL Agent.
DELETE: Deletes the value of the variable, and the variable remains empty.
Value Value that you want to configure for the variable and click OK. The configuration variable is added as a new row in the Configuration Variables table. Click any of the following:
- OK and Close to exit the dialog box. The variable is added to the table on the Configuration Variables tab.
- OK to stay on the dialog box and add multiple variables.
- Cancel to exit the dialog box without saving the changes.
Notes: For thedefaultAccount
configuration variable, specify the value in the userName/password format. Note that the password can be a plain text or a PATROL Agent-encrypted string.Examples:
patrol/patAdm1n
patrol/FA4E70ECEAE09E75A744B52D2593C19F
For the
SecureStore
configuration variable, specify the value in the context/data format. Note that the context and data can be a plain text or a PATROL Agent-encrypted string.Examples:
MY_KM1;MY_KM2;MY_KM3/mysecretdata
“EDC10278901F8CB04CF927C82828595B62D25EC355D0AF38589CE4
235A246F8C63F24575073E4ECD”where
“EDC10278901F8CB04CF927C82828595B62D25EC355D0AF38589CE4235A246F8C63F24575073E4ECD”
is the encrypted form of "MY_KM1;MY_KM2;MY_KM3/mysecretdata"- To modify any value in a variable, click the action menu for the variable and select Edit.
In the Edit Configuration Variable dialog box, modify the properties and click OK. - To remove a variable, click the action menu for the variable and select Delete.
