Configuration
How Maester runs in your tenants. Set it once for all tenants, then customize a tenant only where it needs to differ.
New tests
What happens when a Maester release adds tests.
Emergency access accounts
Break-glass users and groups every Conditional Access policy must exclude. Used by MT.1005 and sent to Maester as GlobalSettings.EmergencyAccessAccounts.
Turned-off tests
Tests Maester skips. No result, no history, no alerts.
Turn off, accept, or exclude?
Three ways to stop a test bothering you. Each can apply to all tenants or specific ones.
Maester doesn't run it. Nothing is recorded. Use when the test doesn't apply to you (no licence, product not used).
- runs · no
- in history · no
- reminders · no
Runs and records. A failure is marked accepted until it expires, then flagged again. You're reminded before expiry.
- runs · yes
- in history · yes
- reminders · before expiry
Runs and records for audit, but a failure is never flagged, alerted, or reminded. Use for decisions that won't change.
