Kaspersky Security Center Cloud Console

Avoiding conflicts between multiple Administration Servers

If you have more than one Administration Server on your network, they can see the same client devices. This may result, for example, of Administration Server installing an application that was already installed by another Administration Server, and other conflicts. To prevent an application from being installed on a device managed by another Administration Server, you must enable the Install only on devices managed through this Administration Server option in the Install application remotely task properties.

If you enable the Install only on devices managed through this Administration Server option, and then run the Install application remotely task, a check is performed to determine if the devices are managed by another Administration Server. For devices managed by another Administration Server, the Managed by a different Administration Server attribute value will be set to true. The Install application remotely task will not be applied to these devices.

The Managed by a different Administration Server attribute values are displayed in the Managed by a different Administration Server column in the list of managed devices and list of unassigned devices.

You can also use the Managed by a different Administration Server property as a criterion for the following purposes:

• Displaying managed devices
• Device selections
• Device moving rules
• Auto-tagging rules

To reset the Managed by a different Administration Server attribute,

In the main menu of Kaspersky Security Center Cloud Console, go to Discovery & deployment → Unassigned devices, select the required device, and then click the Remove the Managed by a different Administration Server attribute button.

The Managed by a different Administration Server attribute is reset.
