Service tasks
Service tasks
You can use the following service tasks to manage the application:
- Update. This task installs updates for application databases on the SVMs on which the task is run.
- Rollback. This task rolls back the last update of application databases on the SVMs on which the task is run.
- Application activation. As a result of this task, a license key for activating the application or for renewing the license term is added to SVMs on which the task is run.
- Automatic installation of patches. This task installs application patches on the SVMs on which the task is run.
You can create service tasks using the Kaspersky Security main administration plug-in on the main Administration Server.
The set of SVMs on which service tasks are run depends on the task's location within the hierarchy of Kaspersky Security Center administration groups:
- A task in the Managed devices folder is run on all SVMs.
- A task in a group that contains a KSC cluster is run on all SVMs of one KSC cluster.
- A task in the Tasks folder configured for one or more SVMs is run on the specified SVMs.
