Configuring the Roll-Up Policy Settings

The Roll-Up policy settings configure the selected server for roll-up of scan information. The settings in the Roll-Up policy identify the next-level server (DN of the Inventory Service object) for moving the scan data from the selected server. These settings stored in eDirectory are associated with the server object.

To set up the Roll-Up policy:

  1. Create or modify a server package.
  2. Enable the Roll-Up policy.
  3. Configure the Roll-Up policy.

To open the Roll-Up policy:

  1. In ConsoleOne, right-click the Server package > click Properties > Policies > click one of the following subtabs: General, NetWare, WinNT-2000.

  2. Check the check box under the Enabled column for the zeninvRollup Policy.

  3. Click Properties.

  4. Modify the setting.

    Destination Server Object: You must specify the DN of the Inventory Service object at the next level for moving the scan data from the selected server. The server that you specify must be another Intermediate Server, Intermediate Server with Database, Intermediate Server with Database and Workstations, Intermediate Server with Workstations, Root Server, or Root Server with Workstations.

    NOTE:  Ensure that the specified server is a different server because the roll-up of data cannot happen on the same server. Also, the higher level roll-up server cannot specify the lower-level server as the next-destination server for roll-up of data.

  5. Click OK.

NOTE:  If you are modifying the Inventory policies or configuring the objects, always stop the Inventory services. Configure the policies and properties of the objects. Restart the Inventory services again.
