As @mfranz mentioned you can use the XML files to review the data, However is there any particular reason you are importing HPUD data twice daily? My observation there is negligible impact on the HPUD server for the import and will hardly take a few seconds for the import. You can you use the "prestaged" method to import the existing XML files to staging DB.

Hi @bleepie , Yes, you can read the contents of the ndi file. The ndi files are in .gz format when you open its shows a bunch of jumbled content. You need to extract the .gz ndi file and then you can open in Text format notepad.

Hi @daichi , This depends on how well ILMT agents are managed in your environment. However if you are planning to replace ILMT agents with Flexera agents for VPC and PVU capacity licensing. I would suggest refer the link below on ways of collecting Inventory and Transition from ILMT to Flexera with proper approvals and process. https://docs.flexera.com/fnms/EN/SystemRef/index.html#SysRef/SubcapPVU/topics/ScPVU-TwoPaths.html

Hi @a_cutler , Yes, the policy downloads all the beacons details irrespective if its configured in bootstrap or not. This is basically for fail over settings, in case the beacon configured is not reachable then the agent tries to check if any other beacon is reachable or not. You can restrict inventory settings to targeted devices. Refer: Gathering FlexNet Inventory FlexNet Manager Suite 2021 R1 - Agent third-party deployment: Protecting Your Customizations (flexera.com)

Hi @a_cutler , Yes, this is by default the agent picks up all the beacon servers and will prioritize. However please try to set the auto priority to false in upload and download settings for Dev Beacon and assign a value 10 Lesser than the Prod beacon server and re-run mgspolicy and check. Kindly refer the article for bootstrapping beacon servers. https://community.flexera.com/t5/FlexNet-Manager-Forum/FNMS-Inventory-Agent-Deployment/td-p/96439/page/1

Hi @sasikumar_r FNMS supports SAML 2.0 and will integrate with any product Identity provider that uses SAML 2.0. Check if Ivanti supports SAML 2.0 and you can do a POC. Since there is no specific document for this particular Identity provider. Refer: https://community.flexera.com/t5/FlexNet-Manager-Knowledge-Base/FNMS-SAML-Setup-Okta-configuration-guide-to-enable-SSO-SAML-in/ta-p/157729

Hi @sbathusha , Yes, it will impact the Flexera services configured. Typically The Service account should be set to Not Expire.

@RayanKS Add the entries of the beacon in host file on client machine and rerun mgspolicy command.

Hi @sreeramyenuga , ERROR, "[Start Service]", "CFG-ERR-0103 Unable to start IBM Cognos service. Execution of the external process returns an error code value of '-1'." Can you please try the below step of updating the password in Services.msc and try starting the cognos service via CogConfig.bat executable from configuration folder. https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/cfg-err-0103-unable-start-cognos-service

Hi @sreeramyenuga , What is the error? Also share the log files.

lajanakiram · ‎Sep 15, 2022

Hi @sreeramyenuga , This occurs if the SQL Server is configured only to use TLS 1.2? If only TLS 1.2 is enabled then follow the below article. https://community.flexera.com/t5/FlexNet-Manager-Knowledge-Base/Analytics-Cognos-connection-to-SQL-server-fails-when-server-is/ta-p/113351

Hi @mmfish1 , The device role is captured by the agent and the connector fetches the details related to instance ID, region, type, Availability type & zone.. etc , To get the hosted in information you need to use the connector and for AWS EC2 instances the Agent needs to be deployed to get the mapping.

lajanakiram · ‎Sep 12, 2022

Hi @ReshmaB , Ideally the agent should not create a new record, however please check if any of the attributes has changed for the device record ex: Serial number
