Introduction SPS Lite is a view that was added to the product specifically for environments that have 30K+ devices to ensure quick loading times of SPS packages view. Feature details The SPS Lite view loads the SPS packages available without the Detected column and the related summary columns such as Insecure, Secure, End-of-Life, Total, Hosts. This means that fewer details are loaded into the initial SPS Packages view to save loading times for larger environments. The Summary details are available through the Product & Host Smart Group views. The SPS Lite view can be enabled by browsing Patching > Flexera Package System and selecting the 'Configure View' Button as seen below: The different views are displayed below, first with SPS Lite enabled: Below is the SPS packages view without SPS Lite enabled showing the full summary detail:

Hi, This would be dependant on your Distribution System used, if you are using WSUS then you can add machines to a separate group within WSUS and only approve for this group. Then once this is tested you can approve for the wider estate. With SCCM you would do something similar but this wouldn't be handled from within SVM, you would create another collection of test machines to distribute to. Kind regards, Steve

If you see the below error when trying to upgrade Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) on-prem to Software Vulnerability Manager version csi-7.6.1.22 while using the install command 'rpm -Uvh csi-7.6.1.22-0.el7.x86_64.php7.rpm', you're likely experiencing a conflict with the previous version of Software Vulnerability Manager. Due to library changes, this is expected behavior. Follow the below steps to complete your upgrade 1. Perform a backup of your Software Vulnerability Manager appliance. 2. Run the following command on your RHEL server to get your current Software Vulnerability Manager version. rpm -qa | grep csi 3. Run the following command, where X.x.x.x.x refers to the version of Software Vulnerability Manager version you found in step 1. This will remove the previous RPMs to avoid conflicts rpm -e csi-X.x.x.x-x.x.x86_64 4. Run the following upgrade command where X.x.x.x.x refers to the Software Vulnerability Manager On-Premises Edition version number that you have just downloaded and are now upgrading to. rpm -Uvh csi-X.x.x.x-x.x.x.el7.x86_64.php7.rpm For more details on upgrading, see Upgrading to the Latest Version of Software Vulnerability Manager On-Premises Edition.

Hi, From my understanding, you would like to have the ability to manually add an email address to the Recipients list rather than creating a user? We cannot add addresses manually to the recipient list, you would have to create a user with an email to appear in the recipient list, you can create a dummy user that had a Distribution list as the assigned email which would save adding multiple users in the recipient's list. The second point regarding the data not being seen this is strange as I have tested this today, I am able to create a new user, ticked 'allow user to see completed scans and single host agents from other users', tick all roles/sub-roles in User Roles & Permissions, also shared all smart groups to the users. When you recompiled the groups under this user did the results still not show? Also, is the newly created user in the same partition as these machines that you expect him to see? Thanks, Steve

Hi, Can you advise if you are using on-prem or Cloud ? Certain reports may take longer than other, also if you have more machines etc. Can you advise on which report you are generating? Also how many machines etc are included in this report? Thanks

Summary This article will assist SVM customers with allowing the 'Flexera Corporate Software Inspector Daemon' to bypass the local proxy settings configured in Windows. Steps Launch Regedit.exe as administrator on the Server which has the 'Flexera Corporate Software Inspector Daemon' installed Browse to the below key to ensure it exists: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Flexera Corporate Software Inspector Daemon Double-click on the 'ImagePath' registry value and add -D to the string in the value data, it should appear as below: "C:\Program Files\Flexera Software\Corporate Software Inspector Daemon\daemon.exe" --service-launch -D Click ok to save the registry value, launch Services.msc as administrator and restart the 'Flexera Corporate Software Inspector Daemon' service. This will now allow the 'Flexera Corporate Software Inspector Daemon' attempt to contact SVM via a direct connection in the first instance rather than the locally configured proxy settings, therefore bypassing the proxy.
