Configuring auto-install settings

Overview

This page explains how to configure auto-install settings for rules in the Rule Library. This capability allows rules to be automatically installed based on their configured severity level.

Any changes made to the auto-install settings for a rule category are applied during the next CDN library release. Based on the updated configuration, newly available rules are automatically installed according to the selected severity levels.

By default, only Critical rules are configured for auto-installation, and only those rules are installed. If the auto-install settings are updated to include both Critical and Trouble, the revised configuration is applied in the next CDN library release, and the corresponding rules are automatically installed based on the new settings.

If the Do not install option is selected, no new rules are automatically installed in the next CDN library release.

Steps to configure auto-install settings

1. In the Rule Library page, navigate to Settings.

   

2. From the Auto-Install Rules dropdown, select the severity levels for which rules should be automatically installed, such as Critical, Trouble, or Attention.

   

3. To disable auto-install, select Do not auto-install.
4. Click Update to save your changes.

   

   NOTE Rules that are highly computational will be installed in a disabled state by default.
5. Auto-install settings are applied per Rule Library category, so configure them individually for each category as needed.
6. Rules installed through auto-install are activated automatically, but you must manually enable any associated alert profiles if required.
   NOTE Severity of the pre-defined rules is provided by ManageEngine Log360 Cloud team at the time of creation.
