Managing monitored objects

You can monitor objects to check for computers that are added or removed. If monitoring is enabled, Active Administrator automatically adds newly discovered computers in the monitored OUs or groups to the Certificate Management window. If a computer is removed, it is automatically removed from the Certificate Management window, if computer removal is enabled.

When editing a monitored object, you can choose to enable/disable monitoring, include/exclude nested OUs or groups, enable/disable automatic removal of computers, or change the credentials used to monitor objects.
