Managing Multi-Host Entitlement Aggregation Groups

Entitlement aggregation is the process of loading entitlement data into Identity Security Cloud from external sources. Entitlement aggregation groups enable centralized management of entitlement aggregation for multiple sources.

An entitlement aggregation group can contain a maximum of 10 sources. During the source creation process, the required number of entitlement aggregation groups are automatically created and sources are automatically distributed between groups.

Note

Manual creation of entitlement aggregation groups and manual allocation of sources within the groups is not supported.

You can schedule or manually start entitlement aggregations.

Scheduling Aggregations for Multi-Host Entitlement Aggregation Groups

You can schedule aggregation to automatically load new entitlement data for all aggregation groups through global scheduling or set specific schedules for each aggregation group.

To set up aggregation scheduling:

1. Go to Admin > Connections > Multi-Host Sources and select a multi-host group.

2. Select Edit to view configuration details about the multi-host group.

3. From the left navigation, select Entitlement Management > Entitlement Aggregation.

   

4. Choose whether to enable global scheduling or set the schedule for each aggregation group:

   • To define a single schedule to aggregate sources in all aggregation groups in the multi-host group, select the Enable Global Scheduling toggle and set the frequency, time, and day or date when the aggregation should run. Select Preview to see how the schedule will be distributed across the aggregation groups.
   • To define a different schedule for each aggregation group, select the Enable Scheduling toggle for each aggregation group and set the frequency, time, and day or date when the aggregation should run for that group.

   You can still manually aggregate sources in each aggregation group.

   Refer to Scheduling Recurring Aggregations for guidance on frequency, time, and recurrence options.

5. Select Save to save your scheduling changes.

Notes

• To maintain peak aggregation performance, the first source within the group will start aggregation, followed after a short delay by the next source, until all sources have started aggregation.
• If aggregation fails for a specific source within the aggregation group, the process will move on to the next source and continue the aggregation process.

Manually Aggregating Multi-Host Entitlement Aggregation Groups

You can manually aggregate entitlement data for sources within an entitlement aggregation group from the Entitlement Aggregation page.

1. Go to Admin > Connections > Multi-Host Sources and select a multi-host group.

2. Select Edit to view configuration details about the multi-host group.

3. From the left navigation, select Entitlement Management > Entitlement Aggregation.

4. Select Manual Aggregation to start the entitlement aggregation process.
