Rename

Agent > Templates > Rename

The Rename page renames machine ID template accounts.

Procedure

1. Select a machine ID in the paging area.
2. Click one of the following radio buttons:
   • Rename account - Select this option to rename a selected machine ID account.
   • Merge offline account <Offline Machine ID> into <Select Machine ID> Delete <Offline Machine ID> after merge - Use merge to combine log data from two different accounts into the same machine. This could be necessary if an agent was uninstalled and then re-installed with a different account name. Merge combines the accounts as follows:
     • Log data from both accounts are combined.
     • Baseline Audit data from the old offline account replaces any baseline data in the selected account.
     • Alert settings from the selected account are kept.
     • Pending agent procedures from the selected account are kept. Pending agent procedures from the old offline account are discarded.
     • The old account is deleted after the merge.

       Note: Since the machine can only be active on a single account, only offline accounts are provided in the drop-down list to merge with.

3. Optionally enter in a New Name for the machine ID account.
4. Optionally select a different Group ID for the machine ID account.
5. Click the Rename button.
