The Server Task log
You can use server tasks and the Server Task Log to help manage and report on system status
throughout your network. The default set of server tasks actions is described here.
Improvements to server tasks
Server tasks are now more configurable, allowing you to chain multiple actions and subactions
within a single task, and provide more flexible scheduling.
Server task actions
• Active Directory Synchronization/NT Domain — Synchronizes selected Windows NT
domains and Active Directory containers that are mapped to System Tree groups.
• Delete Detected Systems — Deletes any detected systems returned as a result of this
task.
• Event Migration (3.6.x -> 4.x) — If you upgrade from a previous ePolicy Orchestrator
installation, this task migrates events from the old database to the new database, so that
you can run queries against your historical data. McAfee recommends scheduling this task
to run at off hours as soon as possible after upgrading.
• Export Agent Handler Assignments — Downloads SiteList.xml, which contains the list
of Agent Handler assignments.
• Export Policies — Downloads an xml file that contains the associated policy.
• Export Queries — Generates a query output file that can be saved or emailed to a recipient.
• Host IPS Policy Migration — Use this task to enable policies created with previous versions
of Host IPS to the current version of the software.
• Host IPS Property Translator — Translates client rule properties and populates appropriate
database tables with this data.
• Import Agent Handler Assignments — Imports a previously exported Agent Handler
list, for example, SiteList.xml.
• Load Systems by File — Imports the systems from a text file that includes system name
or IP addresses each on a new line.
• Product License Usage: Count by Product — Exports or emails the number of licenses
used, based on the products installed on the server.
• Product License Usage: Entitlement Information — Generates a report that summarizes
installations of your software on managed systems that have communicated to this ePO
server in the last 180 days. The report can be exported or emailed.
