Connection Node

At the job group level, the Connection node identifies the Connection Profile assigned for the job group. You create all Connection Profiles at the global level (Settings > Connection).

Job Group Connection Settings

By default, Access Analyzer sets all job groups to inherit the Use Default Profile option from the global level or a parent job group. See the Connection topic for additional information.

If you don't prefer the Default Setting, select one of the following custom connection settings:

  • System default

    • For manual or ad hoc job execution, Access Analyzer applies the account logged into the Access Analyzer Console to the target hosts for authentication
    • For scheduled job execution, Access Analyzer applies the account supplied as the Schedule Service account at the Settings > Schedule node to the target hosts for authentication

  • Select one of the following user defined profiles

    • Select a pre-configured Connection Profile from the dropdown menu

Selecting the Set all the child objects to inherit these settings option forces inheritance of this setting to all sub-groups and jobs within the job group. When you enable this option, it overrides any custom settings configured for the child objects.
