Asset Import to Gconf (Gconf_import)
Within the suite of WOCU-Monitoring products, you will find the GConf. This is a complementary tool, useful for comprehensive, unified, and/or independent management of configurations for network devices administered and monitored within the application. This technology enables us to have version control on desired devices by storing backup of configurations whenever required.
Therefore, the Gconf_import task is responsible for importing assets that will initially be placed within the GConf for subsequent configuration management and version control.
Through this task, a point of entry is provided for efficient version management and backups, thus contributing to the stability and adaptability of the monitored infrastructure.
Below are detailed each of the different fields that the user must fill out for the configuration of the Task:
Realm Name
This field is not editable and indicates the name of the Realm targeted by the Import Task.
Task Type
This field indicates the Type of Task to be generated. It is the first selectable field in the dropdown menu and conditions the rest of the fields.
If a different type of task is selected before saving changes, the previously entered data will be lost.
Name
The field captures the name chosen by the user to identify the new created task.
Enabled
Checking this box enables and activates this New Import Task for its next execution.
By default, this option is enabled.
Interval
Through this dropdown menu, you can choose how often the asset import for this new task will be executed. The possible available options are:
Task executed daily (Every 1 day).
Task executed every second (Every 1 second).
Contrab
Alternative option to establish the frequency at which the task will be executed. Its configuration is done using the Crontab format, providing greater flexibility for more specific use cases.

Gconf Group
Introduce the group or groups of Hosts that will be imported into the GConf for the management of backups and version control of the set.
Exclude gconf csv
In this field, the user can attach a file in CSV format containing the list of hosts that will be ignored during the task, instead of being imported into the GConf, for subsequent configuration management, backups, and version control.
Once the data has been entered in the corresponding fields, you will need to click the blue Add Tasks button to save the new task in the list.
Note
Clicking on the button identified by the i icon (Information) will open a new window with help information for the different fields. This action does not make any changes to the configuration.
