Assign the Smart Label run order

Assign the Smart Label run order

You can run Smart Labels sequentially by assigning the run order in the Smart Label properties.

Assigning the Smart Label run order can be useful when you want to run a specific Smart Label before other Smart Labels. For example, you might have a Smart Label that identifies a set of devices. If you want to use a second Smart Label to further refine the set of devices based on the first label being applied, you could set the run order so that the first Smart Label runs before the second one. Smart Labels have a default order value of 100, and Smart Labels with lower values run before those with higher values.

1.
Go to the Smart Label list:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.
b.
On the left navigation bar, in the Home section, click Label Management.
2.
In the Choose Action menu, in the Order section, select the type of label whose run order you want to change.
The Order page appears, showing all Smart Labels of the selected type.

Click the Edit button to the right of the Order column: .

Delete Smart Labels

Delete Smart Labels

Deleting Smart Label is useful if you need to make extensive changes to Smart Label criteria while preserving labels used in tasks such as Managed Installations.

For example, you could delete all the criteria from a Smart Label, then re-apply new criteria to the container label. In effect, this would create a new Smart Label using the existing container label required for Managed Installations.

Deleting a Smart Label removes the criteria associated with the Smart Label, but it does not delete any other labels associated with the Smart Label.

1.
Go to the Smart Label list:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.
b.
On the left navigation bar, in the Home section, click Label Management.

Select Choose Action > Delete, then click Yes to confirm.

Restrict Label Group Usage To

(Optional) The categories of items to which the label or label group can be applied. If you do not restrict label usage, the label or label group can be applied to any item. However, if you restrict the label or label group to categories such as Applications and Patches, that label or label group can be applied only to Applications and Patches; it cannot be applied to other items, such as Devices.

Meter Software Usage

Select or clear this check box to enable or disable metering for Device labels.

Allow Application Control

Enable Application Control on devices. Software marked as Not Allowed is prevented from running on devices to which the label is applied.

Label Group

(Optional) The label group to which the label is assigned. To assign the label to a label group, click Edit next to the Label Group field, then select a label group. This is useful if you have a large number of labels and you want to organize them into sub-labels. For example, you could include the labels of your licensed applications in a group label named Licenses. In addition, labels inherit any restrictions of the groups to which they belong.
