@nrousseau1 what is the best practice to accept the recommendations for optimizing which windows server/CIS license a host consumes. Do we just manually allocate the host or is there something we can do with the new intelligent license restriction feature in latest release to automate?

Thanks, I was thinking it was going to be difficult to keep up to date given how quickly things change in the software licesning world. Will check out the other offering.

Is this IBM practice guide still available in Learning Center? Don't see the IBM or Micrsoft practices when I searched.
Thanks

Will this work for a commercial cert or just a internal enterprise cert?

We were able to work on a couple of devices today and Test-NetConnection works but same An existing connection was 'forcibly closed by the remote host' error when we tried C:\Program Files (x86)\ManageSoft\Policy Client\mgspolicy.exe -t machine -o UILevel=Auto As mentioned most devices report in fine but some do not and based on some initial testing we are thinking the difference is that device reports in fine when user is working remotely from home and same device fails when user is back working in the office on the corporate network. We have just one beacon but heard that maybe security differences when in office versus working from home. Still validating but if correct next step is to work with network/security team on a possible reason and options to resolve. Has anyone experienced something similar given the large number of working from home users during COVID?

Just Windows 10 devices, as mentioned most work fine and others we get the error. We are testing against two Windows 10 laptops, one that works and one that does not - both laptops should have the same security settings as its set through group policy and confirmed that TLS 1.1 and 1.2 enabled.

We have confirmed that TLS 1.1/1.2 at the client is enabled on the Windows 10 device that reports in ok and the device that does not report in. Checking on the TLS version enabled on the beacon.

We are seeing this error with Windows 10 devices. Most are reporting in fine with no errors but some have the error in the installation.log: 12/1/2021 11:22:19 AM (G, 0)] {5076} Download failure: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. [12/1/2021 11:22:19 AM (U, 0)] {5076} ERROR: Error (s107m858) We are thinking maybe related to TLS protocol but do not see a difference in TLS configuration b/w windows 10 that works and one that does not. Any idea on how to troubleshoot to eliminate this error? Can we make an update on the beacon server to not close the connection? You mentioned switching TLS off on the inventory beacon (we only have one in this environment) but not sure how to do this in order to test if resolves our issue. Thanks Craig

Nicolas, dev environment which has reduced hardware specs and we had ~35k inventory records to be deleted so took ~30 hours fo script to complete. So reconcile finished but nothing appears to have changed .. all the ~35K computers are still in inventory. Any ideas what we can check to determine why the script did not appear to work?

We just completed running the computer records clean script which took a long to complete. We are reviewing the results and noticed that all inventory still shows records that have a 'stale'/old inventory date. The Computer_MT table in the FNMSInventory DB still has the stale/old records so we are unsure on what the script actually did. My understanding is that the script should have deleted these records. Do we need to now run a full compliance to complete the clean on computer/inventory records?

I heard the following back from Flexera, we are validating running KVM and if yes will next test. “Assuming Nutanix is using KVM libvirt on the VM host https://next.nutanix.com/how-it-works-22/nutanix-acropolis-hypervisor-a-k-a-ahv-38786 To have KVM host and VM relationship automatically in place, Flexera inventory agent need to be installed on the Linux KVM host and VM’s running on the host. Customer can quickly validate if host is running supported KVM libvirt library by running The Flexera standalone inventory agent on the host or (ndtrack.sh/ndtrack.ini) (available on the beacon server C:\Program Files (x86)\Flexera Software\Inventory Beacon\RemoteExecution\Public\Inventory) and by checking the generated ndi to see if customer can see VM’s machine instances within the host ndi if yes it mean Flexera ITAM will automatically defect host and it VM without any custom adapter. OR virsh list --all (KVM tool should be available on the KVM host if using libvirt)”

The issue with nutanix devices reporting incorrectly as computer and not VM was resolved late last month with a upgrade of our cloud instance so we are good there. I don't believe an enhancement was included to enable an introspection of the Nutanix environment to import hosts and guest relationships like we can with vCenter. My understanding is that this will therefore require us to develop a process of exporting this information out of Nutantix and creating business adapters to import. if anyone has completed this process and can share the steps that would be great.
