4b (Optional) Click Add Filter again to add an additional row of criteria and repeat Step 4a
and Step 4b , as many times as necessary.
Be aware that the rows in the filter are separated by And. If you specify multiple rows in
the filter, the criteria in all rows must be met for the rule to apply.
5 (Optional) In the Values Applied to Imported Machines section, make the desired changes:
Name given to imported machines: Select one or more machine variables to provide a
naming scheme for registering devices.
Avoid spaces in your naming scheme; these spaces must be escaped when using the command
line utilities. For example, use ${HostName}-${OS} rather than ${HostName} ${OS}.
Folder where imported machines should be placed: Specify the folder where devices should
be placed.
As a general rule, devices with similar configuration settings (refresh intervals, logging
settings, remote management settings, and so forth) should be grouped in the same folder so
that you can specify the configuration settings on the folder and have the devices in the folder
inherit them. You should not use the same folder for devices that require different configuration
settings; doing so would prohibit you from using the folder to define the settings and force you
to define them on each individual device.
Group membership: Click Add to add a group. You can only add groups that are valid for the
type of device folder you specified on the previous page of the wizard. For example, if you
specified the
/Devices/Workstations
folder, you can only choose workstation groups. To
remove a group, select the box next to the group's name, then click Remove .
