Application Convergence (Negative Convergence)

Negative convergence allows you to uninstall packages that have been installed in dynamic groups.

For a dynamic group, you can enable negative convergence

What is negative convergence? : 

Negative convergence is an uninstallation task that repeats every 24 hours to verify that the package(s) you have defined for negative convergence are not deployed; if a new workstation or an existing workstation in the group has the package installed, it will uninstall that package.

In summary, negative convergence allows you to maintain application compliance across your fleet.

How does it work? :

First, once in the Médulla interface, go to the Computers tab. In the left-hand menu, select the group for which you want to enable negative convergence.
