4.1 ConfigRemoteServiceDown

Use this Knowledge Script to set parameter values in the local repository of the computer where you run the script. The values are used by the RemoteServiceDownLR script when it runs on that computer.

Using this pair of scripts, you can set up the computers in a group so that when the RemoteServiceDownLR script runs on the group, it can run with different parameter values on each computer. This is particularly useful for enforcing monitoring policies.
