Creating a Solution Pack

Using Solution Designer, you can create a Solution Pack using existing content objects (for example, correlation rules or dynamic lists) from Sentinel. The Solution Designer analyzes the dependencies for a content object and includes all necessary components in the Solution Pack. For example, a correlation rule deployment includes a correlation rule definition and can also include one or more actions and the ability to create an incident using a workflow. The Solution Designer includes the correlation rule, the associated correlation actions, the iTRAC template, and the roles associated with the iTRAC template in the Solution Pack.

NOTE:To add a content object to a Solution Pack, it must already exist in Sentinel. Content objects cannot be created through the Solution Designer.

To create a new Solution Pack:

  1. Open the Solution Designer in either connected or offline mode.

  2. Click File > New. An empty Solution Pack displays in the Solution Pack frame.

  3. Add Categories, controls, content groups, and content placeholders, using the proper procedures for each.

  4. Add file attachments to the hierarchy nodes as desired.

  5. Click File > Save. The Save window displays.

    Provide a name and click Save. The Solution Pack is saved in a .zip or .spz format.

NOTE:Although you can save a Solution Pack with empty placeholders, you cannot install controls in Solution Manager unless all placeholders have been filled with content.
