Ways to use the Device Explorer

The Device Explorer allows you to browse and manage servers, devices (such as network), and groups of servers in your environment.

Using the Device Explorer you can perform the following actions on individual servers:

Browse basic device system information, such as device, operating system, memory, Server Agent version, and more.
View device compliance information and view the details of any policies attached to the server, such as all audits, patch policies, software policies, as well as any application configurations attached to the server.
Run audits of the server, remediate any software policies attached to the server, and push application configurations on to a server.
Browse live and up to date information about a server’s file system, registry, hardware inventory, hardware, ethernet and SAN connections, installed software and patch lists, runtime state, user and user group membership, services, snapshots, and more
View server group membership.
View virtual server hypervisors and virtual machines (VMware, Solaris, and Microsoft Hyper-V).
Add and delete custom attributes.

Note
Some Device Explorer features are not available for VMware ESXi servers because SA does not install a Server Agent on ESXi servers. For more information on ESXi servers, see the SA 10.50 User Guide. For more information on Server Agents, see Managing the Server Agent.
