Function Description
Denying You can control the availability of an application with the following
applications options:
If a user tries to run a denied application, it is stopped immediately.
A prompt can be shown to the user for the application that was denied.
You can also configure deny events to be sent to Notification Server
when a user tries to run a denied application. These events can then
be used to trigger sending an email to an administrator. You can also
view reports that list the denied applications that were attempted to
run.
See
You can deny one or more applications using a single policy. You can
also deny several applications using the Blacklisted Applications
policy.
See
When you meter applications, you define the applications you want to monitor
or deny by creating application definitions.
See "About configuring applications for metering"
The rules for metering applications are controlled through Notification Server
polices. The Application Metering plug-in, which runs with the Altiris Agent on
the target computer, enforces the properties of the policies.
