7.4 Working with Device Groups

Agent Manager provides tremendous flexibility with device groups. You can create new device grouping rules to define new sets of Windows computers for Agent Manager to manage and monitor.

7.4.1 Associating a Device Group with a Data Collection Policy

If you create a device group, associate it with the data collection policy containing the data collection rules you want applied to the computers in the device group. You can associate device groups and data collection policies in the Sentinel Web Console. Built‑in data collection policies are already associated with built‑in device groups.

Data collection rules are updated periodically on agents. You can expedite this process. For more information about updating Data Collection rules, see Forcing Data Collection Rule Changes.
