Editing Existing Registration Rules - Novell ZENWORKS LINUX MANAGEMENT 7.2 IR2 - ADMINISTRATION GUIDE 09-25-2008 Administration Manual

Adding groups causes devices to receive any assignments provided by membership in the
groups. Assignments from group membership are additive, so if a device is assigned to both
group A and group B, the device receives all assignments from both groups.
Click Add to add a group. You can only add groups that are valid for the type of device folder
you specified on the previous page of the wizard. For example, if you specified the /
Devices/Workstations folder, you can only choose workstation groups.

Back button as necessary. Click Finish to create the registration rule according to the settings
on the Summary page.

12.2.2 Editing Existing Registration Rules

1 In the ZENworks Control Center, click the Configuration tab.
2 Click the underlined link for the registration rule that you want to edit.
NOTE: If you edit an existing registration rule, be aware that the changes you make apply only
to newly registered devices. If the device is already registered, the original settings remain. For
example, if you change the naming and folder containment settings, those devices already
registered retain the previous naming convention and remain in the original folder they were
placed in. You could, however, unregister the devices and then reregister them to ensure that
the new naming convention and folder containment settings are applied to the previously
registered devices. For more information, see
Devices," on page 115.
