If you checked the Remediation option in a policy you created, then the policy will build a job for each computer to remediate ** smg 08/03/2015 - If it were me I'd add a single Remediation page and step the user through both the configuration and approval of remediation. **

 A Security Analysis Remediation policy requires approval for each computer before running the task to fix non-conforming settings. However, before this job is delivered to the computers, you must approve it.

To approve remediation, do the following steps: [[following are the steps and screenshot for Symantec]]

  1. Click on the Remediation Approvals (smaller) tab at the top of the policy view.
    • You may view the job that has been created by clicking the View link to the left of each computer in the list.
  2. Check the Approve box next to each computer that is approved to perform the remediation steps. To approve all computers in the list, check the Approve box in the header of the column.
  3. Click Save at the bottom of the page.
    • Once saved, the computers are immediately sent the remediation job and will perform another analysis afterwards.
