Membership: Collections

The Membership page assigns machine IDs as members of one or more collections. Machine collections let you group any number of arbitrary machines together. Any machine can be made a member of one or more collections.

  • Collections work together with group ID and machine ID filters to sort and list various machines. For example, you can create a collection named servers and assign all your servers to be members of this collection. Then if you want to see all the servers in the accounting machine group, define a view that shows the servers collection and the accounting machine group.
  • Patch Approvals are defined by machine collection.

Machine collections are defined using Agent > Create/Delete. Machine IDs are assigned to machine collections using Agent > Membership.
