# Bulk Operations

The following topics are discussed here.

## Location

The Location tab displays all locations defined in ArcMC. The Location tab includes these buttons:

Add | Adds a new location. For more information, see Adding a Location
Edit | Edits the name of a location. For more information, see Editing a Location
Delete | Deletes one or more selected locations from ArcMC. For more information, see Deleting a Location

The Manage Locations table displays these parameters for each location.

- Name: Location name.

- Number of Hosts: Number of hosts assigned to the location.

## Host Tab

The Host tab displays all hosts associated with the location selected in the navigation tree. The Hosts tab includes these buttons:

Update Credentials | Updates the host’s credentials. For more information, see Updating Host Credentials
Download Certificate | Downloads the host’s current certificates. For more information, see Downloading and Importing Host Certificates
Scan Host | Scans each port on non-appliance based hosts. For more information, see Scanning a Host
Move | Moves selected hosts to a new location. For more information, see "Moving a Host to a Different Location
Delete | Deletes selected hosts from ArcMC. For more information, see Deleting a Host

The Hosts table displays these parameters for each host:

- Hostname: Fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or IP address of the host. The hostname must match the hostname in the host’s SSL certificate. (If IP address was used to add the host, then the certificate will match the IP address used.)

- Path: Path to the host.
- Agent Version: Version number of the ArcMC Agent running on the host.

- Issues: Status of any issues associated with the host. Possible indicators include:

- None: No issues are associated with the host.

- Internet connection Not Present: The host is currently not reachable by internet connection. Displayed when ArcMC is not able to connect to the Marketplace for retrieving parser upgrade versions. If the user environment needs a proxy server for an internet connection, configure the logger.properties file. If the user environment is an appliance, save the DNS settings on the System Admin > Network page.
- Valid Marketplace Certificate Not Found in ArcMC: Displayed when the Marketplace certificate does not match the one found in ArcMC's trust store.

- Host Certificate Mismatch: The hostname does not match the hostname in the SSL certificate. For instructions on downloading and importing certificates for the host, see Downloading and Importing Host Certificates. If this issue is displayed for the localhost, and the certificate cannot be downloaded, please restart the web service on the localhost.

- ArcMC Agent Out of Date: The host’s Agent version cannot be upgraded from the managing ArcMC, or the ArcMC cannot communicate with the ArcMC Agent on the managed node. You may need to manually install the ArcMC Agent. For requirements and instructions, see Installing the ArcMC Agent

- ArcMC Agent Stopped: The Agent process on the host has been stopped.

- ArcMC Agent Upgrade Recommended: The host's Agent version is older than the one on the managing ArcMC. An Agent upgrade is recommended.

- ArcMC Agent Uninstalled: The Agent on the host has been uninstalled.

- ArcMC Agent Down: The Agent on the host is not running.
- Update the authentication credentials on the localhost, then install the ArcMC Agent: For a localhost added for remote management, authentication credentials need to be updated to ensure authentication, then the ArcMC Agent needs to be installed to enable management. Take both of these steps to correct this issue.
- Error in REST Authentication: The Transformation Hub node lacks the ArcMC certificate, ArcMC session ID, or ArcMC URL and port. To resolve this issue:

  - Make sure that the OMT Cluster has been configured correctly with the appropriate ArcMC details. For more information, please see Configuring ArcMC to Manage a Transformation Hub.

  - Note that each time the user replaces the ArcMC certificate to the TH's location, the TH's webservice pod has to be restarted for the new certificate to be read and updated in the trust store.

- Model: If the host is an appliance, this shows the ArcSight model number of the appliance. If the host is not an appliance, the label Software is shown.

- Type: Type of installation, either ArcMC Appliance or Software.

- Version:Version number of the software on the host.

## Container Tab

The Containers tab includes the Properties button, it allows you to modify the properties of Containers.

The Containers table includes the following columns:

- Name: Name of the container.

- Path: Path to the container.

- Issues: Status of any issues associated with the container.

- Port: Port number through which the container is communicating.

- Framework Ver: Framework version number of the container.

- Parser Ver: Parser version number of the container.

- Status: Status of the container. Possible values for container status are:

- Improper configuration: Initial default state.

- Initializing connection: The connector has a resolvable URL, but ArcMC has not logged in to the connector yet.

- Down: There was an exception trying to execute the login command.

- Unauthorized: The login command was executed, but login has failed.

- Connecting: The login is in progress.

- Connected: The login was successful.

- Empty: Login successful, but the container doesn't have connectors.

- Initialized: Login successful and the container has connectors.

- Unknown: No information on status. To resolve, manually SSH to the system and restart the container.

- Last Check: Date and time of last status check.

## Collector Tab

As announced in the 23.1 release, the Collectors feature and the Connectors in Transformation Hub (CTH) feature have been deprecated, and from the ArcSight Platform 24.2 release on, only existing collectors and CTH deployments are supported. You can continue managing your collectors and CTHs in the platform, but you cannot create any new ones.

The Collector tab displays all Collectors associated with the item selected in the navigation tree. For example, if you selected a host in the navigation tree, the Collectors tab would show all Collectors associated with that host.

A Collector is a standalone System component in charge of processing efficiency improvements and the collection of raw data.

Note: The maximum number of selected entries when managing Connectors/Collectors is 50.

The Collectors tab includes the following buttons, which operates on one or more selected Collectors:

Properties | Update the properties of the selected Collectors. For more information, see Updating Collector Properties
Retrieve Logs | Retrieves Collector logs. For more information, see Retrieving Collector Logs
Update Parameters | Update the parameters of the selected Collectors. For more information, see Updating Collector Parameters
Destinations | Manage Collector destinations. For more information, see Updating Collector Destinations
Credential | Manage Collector credentials. For more information on managing Collector credentials, see Updating Collector Credentials
Restart | Restart the selected Collectors. For more information on restarting Collectors, see Restarting Collectors
Delete | Deletes the selected Collectors. For more information, see Deleting Collectors

The Collectors table displays the following parameters for each connector:

- Name: Name of the Collector.

- Port: Collector port.

- Type: Type of Collector.

- Syslog Lines Received: Number of events received.

- Custom Filtering: messages filtered out.

- Status: Collector status.

- Version: Collector version.

- Last Check: Date and time of the last status check.

## Transformation Hub Tab

The Transformation Hub table includes the following columns:

- Transformation Hub: Name of the Transformation Hub.
- Host: Name of the host.
- Port: Port number through which the Transformation Hub is communicating.
- Last Check: Date and time of the last status check.
