To perform a BigFix installation with a new serial number, you need to have a license authorization file from the BigFix License Key Center site. This file contains the information about your license purchase and the serial number. You need to enter thisfile during the installation process to request and get the license certificate file (license.crt) and the private key file (license.pvk). These two files together complete your license. You also generate the masthead file (masthead.afxm) during the installation, which contains the information about your BigFix deployment. References:

• A Manual Computer Group is a group that is defined by manually selecting the computers from the Computers List Panel1. A Manual Group can only be shared between Master Operators2.
• An Automatic Computer Group is a group that is defined by using Relevance expressions or properties to indicate the group membership3. An Automatic Group can change its population dynamically depending on the evaluation of the group properties3.
• An operator might create a Manual Computer Group instead of an Automatic Computer Group if they need to base the group membership on information that is not available using Relevance expressions or properties. For example, if the operator wants to group computers based on their physical location, owner, or usage, they might not be able to use Relevance expressions or properties to determine that information. In that case, they can manually select the computers that belong to the group4.
• However, Manual Groups have some drawbacks, such as being static, not scalable, and not extensible5. Therefore, it is recommended to use Automatic Groups whenever possible and use Manual Groups sparingly25. References:

• The Site Administrator key is a private key that is used to perform site-level tasks such as setting global system options, editing mastheads, and administering Distributed Server Architecture (DSA)1.
• The Site Administrator key is generated during the installation of the BigFix Server, when the site administrator is prompted to enter a password to encrypt the key2.
• The Site Administrator key is stored in a file named license.pvk in the BigFix Enterprise\BES Server folder on the BigFix Server3.
• The Site Administrator key is required to run the BESAdmin.exe tool, which is used to manage the BigFix Server configuration and settings.
• The Site Administrator key is also required to create the masthead file, which is a file that contains the digital signature and configuration information of the BigFix deployment.
• The Site Administrator key is different from the Master Operator key, which is used to access the BigFix Console and create other operators.
