In Sentinel Control Center, Collector
Scripts are plugins in 6.0. A Collector
Script plugin must be added to the
plugin repository before it can be
deployed as a Collector. Collector
parameters are now set when
deploying a Collector in ESM.
In ESM, this configuration is now
managed in the ESM panel in Sentinel
Control Center. The connection
mechanisms are now plugins, which
must be added to plugin repository
before being deployed as Event
Sources.
In ESM, status information is now
viewable in both graphical and tabular
format of the ESM panel in Sentinel
Control Center.
