Once you have your deployed VM workloads (VMs) available in the Enabled tab of the Carbon Black Cloud console, you can enhance the search result with receiving only VMs sensors of interest.
Status
You filter sensors by status to receive only the state of a sensor's installation or activeness, as well as any admin actions taken on the sensor. The filtered content appears in the Status column and may contain multiple icons to indicate the state of the sensor.
| Sensor Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Deregistered | Sensors are deregistered or uninstalled; they will persist on the VM Workloads page in this status until removed. |
| Sensor out of date | Sensors must update to the latest version. |
| Active | Sensors checked in within the last 30 days. |
| Inactive | Sensors not checked in within the last 30 days. |
| Bypass | Admin sets the sensors to a Bypass mode and all policy enforcement on the device is disabled, and the sensor cannot send data to the cloud. Another reason for a sensor to enter momentarily into Bypass mode is during the sensor update. For more details, see Bypass Reasons. |
| Errors | Sensors are reporting errors. |
| Pending install | Sensors are not yet installed following an installation request email sent to a user. |
| Quarantine | Admin sets the sensors to Quarantine mode that isolates them from the network to mitigate spread of potentially malicious activity. |
| Pending update | Sensors are not yet updated following an upgrade request. |
Sensor Version
You filter the installed sensors by version information.
Groups
The Unassigned group filter shows only sensors which metadata does not match any group criteria.
Policy
- Newly deployed and are assigned the Standard policy by default.
- Do not meet a group's criteria and are assigned the default Standard policy.
Golden Image Status
You filter the deployed assets based on their type: as golden images with clones, or as VM workloads.
Operating System
You filter sensors based on their devices' operating system, such as Linux and Windows.
Signature Status
The status of each sensor signature version displays in the Sig column.
| Signature Status | Icon | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Up to date |  |
The sensor signature files are up-to-date if the signature version installed is released within 7 days of the current date. |
| Out of date |  |
The sensor signature files show as out-of-date one week after being disabled, until the updates are reenabled. |
| Not Available |  |
The sensor signature version is not yet reported if the local scan is not configured, or if the sensor encountered an error after local scan was configured, such as a connectivity issue |
| Not Applicable | No icon | Unidentifiable sensor signature version. This is present for macOS and Linux sensors that are not supported. |
