Managing Entities in Medulla
This section guides you through managing entities within Medulla. You will learn how to view existing entities, add new ones, assign users to them, and download tagger agents directly based on the entities.
Entities in the Medulla module are provisioned directly in the GLPI or ITSMNG backend.
The Entity List Section
Located in the center of the screen, this section displays all entities registered in your Medulla environment.
Root Entities.
By default, a root entity is created in Medulla. This root entity can contain child entities and users—both within the root entity itself and within the child entities.
The following information is displayed for each entity:
-
Entity Name: the unique name of the entity.
-
FullName: the full name of the entity.
-
Number of users associated with this entity.
-
Number of machines: attached to this entity.
