Note: The OU/Containers tab and Groups tab only display if the Directory Services feature set is enabled. Policies for contacts are configured using the OU/Containers tab.
Click the Discovery > Domains > Domain Watch > OU/Containers.
Use this tab to specify which domain contacts you want to create a staff record for in the VSA. A domain contact contains contact information similar to information defined for a user, but a contact has no domain logon privileges.
Each OU/container in this tab is identified by its canonical name. A canonical name provides the complete hierarchy of OUs/containers used to locate folders and items—such as computers, contacts or groups—in a domain, similar in format to the full path name of a file in a disk directory.
Additional columns show counts for the computers and contacts selected and available in each OU/container.
Select a OU/container that shows a count for one or more contacts.
Note: Sort this tab by clicking the Sort Descending option in the Total Contacts column heading. This ensures any OU/containers with contact counts greater than zero are listed first.
Select the Contacts Policy button.
The dialog box lists all the available contacts of the OU/container you can include in selected policies.
Entering a checkbox next to a contact in this dialog means you want to create a VSA staff record for that domain contact.
Optionally checking the Include new Contacts checkbox means you want to include new contacts added to this OU/container. VSA staff records will be created for these new contacts as they are discovered.
Check one or more contacts in the list and click Save.
The dialog closes and the count in the Selected Contacts column is updated with the number of contacts included in the contact policy you just set.
The Probe Status displays Activated and the Computers/Contacts Status displays Modified because the policy changes just made have not yet been applied.
Note: You do not need to Apply Changes until all Policies tabs have been configured. Clicking the Apply Changes button on any tab applies Discovery policy changes for all tabs at the same time.
