Setting the Concurrent Host Limit

Prev Next

You can set the maximum number of endpoint hosts that can perform concurrent Endpoint Security (HX) tasks using the Web UI or the API. The concurrent host limit setting applies to all of your host endpoints.

Note

You can modify the Limit concurrent tasks to setting in the Agent Default Policy only. This setting is not supported in custom policies.

To set the limit for the concurrent host limit for all host endpoints:

  1. Log in to the Web UI as an administrator.

  2. From the Admin menu, select Policies to access the Policies page.

  3. From the Policies table, select the Agent Default Policy.
