You can configure additional capabilities and configuration options for the definition ruleset.
{#additional-scan-engine-properties__table_up4_2sx_2hc__entry__2}

| Setting | Description |
|-|-|
| Enable Definition Synchronization | Allows you to push new definitions and definition updates to production. After that, changes flow from the production instance to any test instances listed in the My SN Instances related list. |
| Enable Instance Specific Definitions | When enabled, an additional field will appear on all definition records, SN Instances to Run On. This will allow you to specify definitions to: * Run on production instance(s) only * Run on all sub-production instances * Run on specified instances If you select this option, an additional field allows you to determine specific instances for this definition to run on. Only instances defined in the My SN Instances related list can be selected. {#additional-scan-engine-properties__ul_gh4_hsx_2hc} Definitions will only run on the instances they are configured for. Otherwise, all definitions will run (as long as the definition is marked "active"). Wichtig: If this is enabled and the My SN Instances related list does not contain the current instance, no scans will run for it. |
| Override Instance-Specific Definitions For Definition Scanning | * Overrides instance-specific Scan Engine definitions when scanning for findings against a specific definition using Scan instance for this finding. * Helpful for testing a single production-only definition in a lower environment or running a single sub-production definition against production. {#additional-scan-engine-properties__ul_njh_msx_2hc} Hinweis: This property only applies if you enable instance-specific Scan Engine definitions. |
| Override Instance-Specific Definitions For Update Set Scans | * Overrides instance-specific Scan Engine definitions when scanning update sets. * Helpful when promoting an update set. Retrieved update sets can be scanned against all active definitions, even if the definition doesn't apply to the instance. {#additional-scan-engine-properties__ul_agp_psx_2hc} Hinweis: This property only applies if you enable instance-specific Scan Engine definitions. |
