Configuring Settings for a Server Group

You can add and configure settings specific to a server group on the corresponding server group page in the Command Center.

You can configure the settings appearing by default on the Settings tile of the Configuration tab in the Command Center for the server group entity. These settings are a subset of the related settings list for the server group entity.

Add the other required server group settings to configure server group settings other than the default settings listed on the server group page.

Default Server Group Settings

On the server group page, on the Configuration tab, on the Settings tile, these settings are listed by default.
