7.2.2 Collection Role
This role causes the device to collect inventory information, messages (errors, warning,
informational, and so forth), and policy and bundle statuses, then rolls that information up to its
parent Primary Server, which in turn either writes to the database directly or passes the information
to its parent Primary Server, which does the database writing.

Fill in the field:
Collection Roll-Up Schedule:
Specify the number of days, hours, and minutes for how often
you want the collected data to be rolled up from the devices that use it as a collection server.
The Collection Roll-Up schedule determines how often the collected inventory information is
rolled up to the parent Primary Server for inclusion in the ZENworks database. When the
information is in the database, it is viewable in ZENworks Control Center.
To specify the devices that use the Collection Roll-Up role, configure the
Closest Server Rules
setting in the
Management Zone
settings on the
Configuration
page.

7.2.3 Content Role
This role enables the managed device to distribute content (bundles, policies, system updates, and
patches) to other devices.
When you set up a device to function with a Content role, you must specify a Primary Server as its
parent. The device with the Content role receives all content from its parent Primary Server. Any
content you want hosted on a Satellite with the Content role must also be hosted on its parent
Primary Server. If the content is not hosted on the new Primary Server, it is added.
