To help you set up AppManager for Microsoft Active Directory monitoring in accordance with NetIQ recommended best practices guidelines, five Knowledge Script Groups are provided. For more information, see Section 3.50, AD Knowledge Script Groups.
From the Knowledge Script view of Control Center, you can access more information about any NetIQ-supported Knowledge Script by selecting it and clicking Help. Or in the Operator Console, click any Knowledge Script in the Knowledge Script pane and press F1.
