Registering endpoints to repositories

Register and connect your repositories to endpoints with the Ubuntu Custom Repository Management dashboard.

You must deploy the following task and activate the analysis which can be found in the Patching Support site.

  2. From the Endpoints tab, select the endpoint on which you want to register a repository.


  3. Click Register a new repository. The repositories of the selected endpoints are listed in the lower part of the window. When a repository is named as unspecified, it means that it is not listed in the Repository list.
