"A third is the Default Client Settings, with a Priority of 10000 *not deployed"*
It's deployed by default--every client gets those settings--that's why it's the default. It's the default. So yes, if you check (or uncheck) something in "default client settings"--that'll modify the default. Here's a "for example". Let's say you ONLY really care about services information from your servers--workstations you don't care (this is just a what-if; I'm not saying you would do this). So in "Default Client Settings", hardware inventory, you UNcheck the box for Services. That means that now ALL boxes by default--won't report on what's in win32_service. Now you go into the "Servers Only" CUSTOM Client Agent Setting, Hardware inventory, and DO check the box for services. So now the cumulative settings for servers (Default + Global + Servers only) will report on services... but Workstations, which currently only deserver "default + global", won't. One "could" just make the changes one has in "global" in the "default", and get the same results. I could see the mental exercise however where someone separated it out. What's missing in your dashboard that you need?
