the Red Hat Satellite Installation Guide for additional information.
4. On the "Systems" tab, add the systems to which the Probe Suite applies. Click the add systems
to probe suite link in the upper right of the screen to continue.
5. The next page displays a list of all systems with Monitoring entitlements. Check the box to the left
of the system(s) to which you wish to apply the Probe Suite, select the monitoring scout you wish
to use, and click the Add systems to probe suite button to complete the creation of the
Probe Suite.
You can either delete or detach probes from the suite. Detaching a probe disassociates the probes from
the suite and converts them to system-specific probes for the specified system. T his means that
changes to the detached probes only effect that system. Deleting a probe removes it from the Suite for
all systems.
To remove probes from the Probe Suite:
1. From the Monitoring ⇒ Probe Suites page, click on the title of the Probe Suite you wish to alter.
2. Select the Probes sub-tab.
3. Check the box next to the probe you wish to remove.
4. Click the Delete probes from Probe Suites button.
You may also remove a system from the Probe Suite. T here are two ways to accomplish this. The first
method is to detach the system from the Probe Suite. When you do so, the system still has the same
probes assigned to it. However, you now have the ability to configure these probes individually without
affecting any other systems.
To detach a system from the suite:
1. From the Monitoring ⇒ Probe Suites page, click on the title of the Probe Suite you wish to
alter.
2. Select the Systems sub-tab.
3. Check the box next to the system(s) you wish to remove from the Probe Suite.
4. Click the Detach System (s) from Probe Suite button
The second method is to remove the system from the suite. T his removes the system from the suite and
deletes all running probes from the system.
Note
This action deletes all of the Probe Suites' probes from the system as well as all of the historical
Time Series and Event Log data. T his action is irreversible.
To remove a system from the Probe Suite and delete all associated probes from the system:
