Edit a compliance template

The compliance templates can be edited on the Configuration Compliance > Compliance Templates screen. When editing, selecting, or deselecting the template attributes does not change the template-stored attributes, and all attributes will still be part of the template if it is exported. It does affect what is deployed.

Prerequisites

  • Editing a compliance template that is already associated with other baseline(s), will automatically trigger a configuration compliance for all devices across all the baselines that use the template.
  • Editing a compliance template that is linked to multiple baselines having large number of devices may result in a session timeout as the configuration compliance check for all the associated devices may take several minutes. A session timeout does not indicate that the changes made to the compliance template had any issue.
  • When editing a compliance template on large-scale systems consisting of 1,000 or configuration inventory of a maximum of 6,000 managed devices, ensure that there are no other configuration inventory or compliance operations running simultaneously. Additionally, disable the default system-generated Configuration Inventory job on the Monitor > Jobs screen (set source to System generated).
  • It is recommended that you associate a maximum of 1500 devices per baseline for optimal performance.
  • If there is a use case of frequent template edits, it is recommended that you associate a maximum of 100 devices per baseline for optimal performance.

Steps

  1. On the Compliance Templates screen, select the corresponding check box, and then click Edit.
  2. On the Template Details screen, the configuration attributes of the compliance template are listed.
  3. Expand the attribute that you want to edit, and then enter or select data in the fields. To enable the attribute, select the checkbox.
    NOTE:Attributes that are preceded by information icon are not editable and are not considered for compliance.
  4. Click Save or Discard to implement or to reject the changes.

Results

The compliance template is edited, and the updated information is saved.
