Ignoring a specific plugin result

Plugin results that may have no resolution or stem from legacy software may be specifically ignored. Ignoring a plugin result will continue to report and be displayed on a computer record, but will no longer generate warning or alert emails or tickets.

Examples

  • If CrashPlan is no longer use on a laptop, but was only partially removed, the CrashPlan Plugin can be Ignored via the Dashboard.
  • The Monitoring Client includes a plugin which can be configured to trigger an Alert if a computer is restarted. Should this be enabled, but the notices not needed, the Reboot Plugin can be Ignored.
  • TimeMachine was previously configured and is no longer in use, the TimeMachine plugin can selectively ignored for that computer..
