Abstract: An enterprise management system may present data in a user interface that contains tabular data and a graphical representation of the tabular data. The graphical representation may change based on portions of the tabular data that may be selected, and may show a graphical data summary if no rows are selected, or detailed graphical illustrations of the selected rows. In some cases, filters may be applied to the data, and a selection tool may enable a user to select from several different parameters in each row.

Abstract: An item grouping mechanism may be applied to files or other computer objects to allow the files or objects to be accessed according to the group definition. The group definition may be defined in a table with other group definitions and distributed across an organization so that each device using the group definition may have files or other items presented in a consistent manner. The group definition may be distributed through a different mechanism than for the files or other items. If a device determines that a file defined in the group definition is missing from a local store, the device may retrieve the file from a distribution server.

Abstract: Generating a software update catalog may involve accessing resource identifiers. Each resource identifier may identify a location of a portion of update metadata corresponding to a respective program, where the portions of update metadata include information for determining whether to apply their respective updates. The resource identifiers may be used to import the portions of update metadata, and the software update catalog can be generated based on the imported portions of update metadata. Furthermore, a user interface (UI) may be displayed for authoring an update. The UI may allow a user to define the update and signature information by which a computer can be scanned to determine whether the update has been installed and/or whether the update is applicable. An update by generating a portion of update metadata that includes the information that identifies the update and that includes the scan information.
