 Machine.Group ID - A unique machine ID / group ID / organization ID name for a machine in the

VSA.

 Install Status - If checked, Endpoint Security client software is installed on the machine ID. If the

agent software is earlier than 4.7.1, the message Requires Agent Update displays. If blank,

Endpoint Security client software is not installed on the machine ID.

 Install Source - If a file source is defined using Patch Management > File Source

(http://help.kaseya.com/webhelp/EN/VSA/R8/index.asp#366.htm), then installs are sourced from this

location. Otherwise, installs are sourced from the internet. If the option Download from Internet if

machine is unable to connect to the file server is selected in Patch Management>File Source:

 During a Endpoint Security v2.x endpoint install, if the files source is down or credentials

invalid, the installer is downloaded from the Kaseya Server and completes the endpoint

install.

 During a Endpoint Security v2.x manual update, if the files source is down or credentials

invalid, the update is downloaded from the internet.

In both cases above, the View Logs (page 12) page displays an error message stating why the file

source failed and that it is trying to download from the internet.

 Mailboxes - The number of email accounts on the MS Exchange Server.

 Installed On - The date MS Exchange Server email protection was installed on the machine ID.

The Define Alarm Sets page defines sets of alarm conditions used to trigger alarms using the Apply

Alarm Sets (page 30) page.

Actions

 Save - Save the alarm set.

 Save As - Save an alarm set to a new name.

 Delete - Delete an alarm set.

 Share - Displays if you own a selected alarm set. Share this alarm set with users, user roles or to

make public for all users. Share rights are assigned by object. There are three sharing checkbox

options. The first two checkboxes are mutually exclusive and determine what share rights are

assigned. If neither of the first two checkboxes are checked, the shared object can only be seen

by the users given share access, but the object cannot be used nor edited. The Shared and Not

Shared list boxes and the third checkbox determine who can see the object.

 Allow other administrators to modify - If checked, share rights to the object includes being able

to use it, view its details and edit it.

 Other administrators may use but may not view or edit - If checked, share rights to the object only

allows using it.

 Make public (seen by all administrators) - If checked, ensures that all current and future VSA

users can see the object. If blank, only selected user roles and users can see the shared

object. If blank, and new users or user roles are added later, you have to return to this dialog

to enable them to see the specific object.

 Take Ownership - Displays if you do not own a selected public alarm set. Click to take ownership

(http://help.kaseya.com/webhelp/EN/VSA/R8/index.asp#5537.htm) and make changes to the alarm set.
