Figure 31: Run Query server task actions
6 Select an action to take on the results. Available actions depend on the permissions of the
user, and include:
• Email File — Sends the results of the query to a specified recipient, in a user-configured
format (PDF, XML, CSV, or HTML).
• Move To — Moves all systems in the query results to a group in the System Tree. This
option is only valid for queries that result in a table of systems.
• Change Sorting Status — Enables or disables System Tree sorting on all systems in
the query results. This option is only valid for queries that result in a table of systems.
• Exclude Tag — Excludes a specified tag from all systems in the query results. This
option is only valid for queries that result in a table of systems.
• Generate Compliance Event — Generates an event based on a percentage or actual
number threshold of systems that do not match the criteria in the query. This action is
intended for compliance-based Boolean pie chart queries that retrieve data on managed
systems (for example, the ePO: Compliance Summary default query). This action is part
of the replacement of the Compliance Check server task of previous versions of ePolicy
Orchestrator.
• Repository Replication — Replicates master repository contents to the distributed
repositories in the query results. This is valuable for queries that return a list of
out-of-date repositories (for example, the ePO: Distributed Repository Status default
query). This option is only valid for queries that result in a table of distributed
repositories.
• Clear Tag — Removes a specified tag from all systems in the query results. This option
is only valid for queries that result in a table of systems.
• Assign Policy — Assigns a specified policy to all systems in the query results. This
option is only valid for queries that result in a table of systems.
• Export to File — Exports the query results to a specified format. The exported file is
placed in a location specified in the Printing and Exporting server settings.
• Apply Tag — Applies a specified tag to all systems (that are not excluded from the
tag) in the query results. This option is only valid for queries that result in a table of
systems.
• Edit Description — Overwrites the existing system description in the database for all
systems in the query results. This option is only valid for queries that result in a table
of systems.
