Using the Node List Window

You can change the property group of a set of nodes from the Node List window, using a popup menu accessible from that window. It is appropriate to use this method of property group assignment if:

• You need to change the property group for more than a couple of nodes
• You want to assign the same property group to each of the nodes
• You know in advance which nodes you want to modify

 
  To change the property group for a set of nodes from the Node List window:

1. From the client's Admin menu, choose Node List.

   NerveCenter displays the Node List window.
