You can edit a deployment to change the data source, create a data source filter, and view ESA rules that are associated with this deployment. A data source filter can improve performance by only aggregating relevant data to an ESA rule deployment. For the filter to work, application rules must be enabled on the mapped decoders to apply the meta keys required for this filter. After saving the filter, it must be deployed to take effect.
However, you cannot change the deployment name, or ESA service that are associated with the deployment.
NetWitness Platform XDR provides two methods to manage deployments.
You can edit deployments in the following ways:
-
Using the ESA Deployments tab. The ESA Deployments tab provides a consolidated view of all the available deployments within CCM. You can edit deployments.
-
Using a specific policy. In this method, you cannot view other deployments. You need to go to each policy and edit a deployment.
To edit a deployment from the ESA Deployments tab
-
Go to (CONFIGURE) > Policies > Content.
-
Under Settings, click Event Stream Analysis > ESA Deployments.
The available deployments are displayed.
-
Select a deployment and click Edit or Edit Deployment.

(Optional) you can click on View ESA Rules to search for rules associated with selected policy. To save current changes to the deployment and modify the policy, select click here and navigate to the Edit Content Policy page.
- Make the required changes in the deployment. Policy, deployment name, and ESA service are pre-populated and cannot be modified.
- Under Data Sources, click + to add a data source. The Add Data Source dialog is displayed.
- If required, you can add a new data source by selecting + Add New Datasource tab in the dialog-box.
IMPORTANT: If the data sources are not listed, you can add the required datasource. For more information, see the topic Add an ESA Datasource.
