Creating a Test Service Container

1. Navigate to Administration > Containers > Create a Service Container.

• The page displays three panels.
• The left panel only displays service containers in the logged on user's admin group or department.
  • A logged on superuser only sees and creates containers in the SuperUsers admin group.
  • A logged on admin group user only sees and creates containers in his or her admin group.
  • A logged on organization user only sees and creates containers in his or her organization.

1. Enter a unique container name in the field at the top of the middle Container Configuration panel.
2. Select the Contains: Tests option.
3. Check or uncheck the Populated dynamically based on a rule checkbox.

• If unchecked, in the right hand panel, enter one or more search qualifiers to search for the names of tests.
• Search accepts regular expressions and property:value parameters. See Entering Search Parameters.
• Add a specific test found for a specific device to the service container by clicking the + icon.
• Add all found tests to the service container by clicking the Apply button.
• Your selection of tests is static. It means specific tests for specific devices included in the container won't change unless you return to this dialog and edit the selection manually.

1. If unchecked, in the right hand panel, enter one or more rule qualifiers to identify tests.

• Each field accepts regular expressions.
• The rule qualifiers are applied dynamically. It means tests that are added or removed from devices are also dynamically added or removed from the test container, based on whether they match the rule qualifiers.
• Tag 1 through Tag 5 qualifiers enable you to identify devices using your own customized labels. See Using Tags with Rule-based Containers for more information.

1. Click the Apply button to apply the rule qualifiers.

Note: See Controlling the Severity of Containers for details about the Severity tab.

1. Click Save to save the service container.
