The Infrastructure Management section contains the following settings:
Closest Server Default Rule: Define the rule that is used by a device to determine the closest collection, content, and configuration servers when no Closest Server rules have been defined or when none apply. This rule is simply a listing of the servers in the order you want devices to contact them. You cannot add or remove servers from the lists. For more information, see Closest Server Default Rule.
Closest Server Rules: Create rules that are used to determine which servers a ZENworks Configuration Management 10.2.x/10.3.x device contacts for the collection, content, and configuration functions, if your ZENworks Management Zone includes more than one server. For more information, see Closest Server Rules.
This page is applicable only for devices that have ZENworks Configuration Management SP2/SP3 installed. The settings are disabled when you baseline your Management Zone to ZENworks 11.
MDM Server Defines an MDM Server to allow all mobile devices to communicate with the server at all times. For more information, see Configuring MDM Servers.
HTTP Proxy Settings: Define proxy servers you want to use. A proxy server lets a device connect indirectly to a ZENworks Server through the proxy server. The device’s ZENworks Agent connects to the proxy server, then requests resources from a ZENworks Server. The proxy provides the resource either by connecting to the ZENworks Server or by serving it from a cache. For more information, see HTTP Proxy Settings.
System Update Settings: Configure how you want to use the System Updates feature, including how often to check for updates, specifying a download schedule, configuring e-mail notifications, and more. For more information, see System Update Settings.
ZENworks News Settings: Configures the server and the schedule for downloading the ZENworks News. For more information, see ZENworks News Settings.
Zone Sharing Settings: Configures the zone sharing settings. For more information, see Zone Sharing Settings
Micro Focus Customer Center: Configures Micro Focus Customer Center update schedule and other parameters. For more information, see Micro Focus Customer Center.
Subscription Settings: Configures the settings for subscriptions. For more information, see Subscription Settings.
YUM Service Settings: Configures the YUM Service Refresh Schedule. For more information, see YUM Service Settings.
OpenID Settings: Configures the settings related to you to an OpenID, For more information, see OpenID Settings
User Source Settings: Configures the settings related to user sources. For more information, see User Source Settings
Adapter Settings: Configures network adapter definitions for use in locations and security policies. For more information, see Adapter Settings
Assignment Optimization Settings: Configures the usage of precomputed assignments for managed devices.
Assignment Optimization increases the server performance by using precomputed assignments for managed devices. You can run the precomputation by using the zman area command, or specify a schedule.
You can perform the following configuration on the Assignment Optimization:
Enable or Disable the usage of precomputed assignments for managed devices.
Specify the interval to compute effective assignments for managed devices.
Select a server on which the effective assignments are computed.
By default, any available server in the Management Zone is used to compute the effective assignment.
NOTE:MDM Server is the only setting that is applicable for mobile devices.
