Saving a New Computer List

Manage Computers

By default, the list of computers you are add to and view in Manage Computers is saved in the NetConfig.xml file. When you add or remove computers from the list, you are changing the default list. If you have a large network, you may find it convenient to manage and configure computers by location or department, maintaining a separate computer list for each. Simply save a list you create (by adding or discovering computers) under a different file name.

To save a list from the Manage Computers view:

  1. Open the Control Center and select Manage Computers.

  2. Display the list of computers you want to save by adding or removing individual computers.  

  3. When the list is as you want it, before you attempt to save the list, make sure Load Startup Computer List from File is active under Control Center (right-click) > Properties > Network.

  4. Select Action > All Tasks > Save As Computer List.

  5. In the Browse for Network Configuration File box, enter the name of an .xml file. If you do not specify the file extension, the Control Center adds .xml.  Use the Browse button if you want to find and select an existing file to change. The default NetConfig.xml is located in the Spector 360 program folder.

  6. Load the computer list at any time by selecting Control Center (right-click) >  Load Computer List. More...
