Asset Collector Policy Group (Scalability Server)
The Asset Collector policy group lets you view or edit the existing configuration policy parameters for the Asset Collector at the scalability server level. You can modify policy parameter values by double-clicking a policy to display the Setting Properties dialog.
This policy group contains the following policy group folder:
Events
The Asset Collector policy group also contains the following policies:
Defines the maximum age in seconds that the audit log queue must reach before it sends the audit log to the scalability server for inclusion in the MDB.
Defines the maximum number of items allowed in the audit log queue before it is sent to the scalability server for inclusion in the MDB.
Defines the polling period in seconds. The polling period is used to check the audit log queue and age by the audit component.
Specifies whether inventory files without a collect time are allowed.
Set the value to TRUE to allow inventory files without a collect time in the xml.
Defines the tolerance in seconds that is applied to the current time to define future date.
Any inventory file having a collect time in the future will be checked against the future data.
Specifies whether to reject inventory files with collection time exceeding future date. Set the value to TRUE to reject files that have collection time beyond the future date tolerance.
Defines the list of source folders used for asset collection, with the folder names separated by semicolons. If left empty, the Asset Collector creates a collection folder, named AssetCollectorCollect, in the installation folder.
Default: empty
Note: Use the Collection Folders(Legacy) configuration table only for asset collector having version r12 SP1 or earlier.
Defines the list of source folders used for asset collection, with the folder names separated by semicolons.
Specifies the default origin value that is sent to the server by the Asset Collector if no value is explicitly defined in the inventory file. The origin of an asset/user defines the source from which the asset is collected. This is a free format value that is limited to 64 alphanumeric characters.
Default: XML File
Indicates the default trust level that is sent to the server by the Asset Collector if the user does not specify a value in the inventory file. Valid values are 1–5, with 1 being the least trustworthy and 5 the most trustworthy.
Default: 3
Defines a working folder for differencing when the Generate Deltas Policy property is set to True. When using differencing, the Asset Collector must store a backup of the last processed file, so that the next difference can be calculated. If left empty, the Asset Collector creates a working folder, named AssetCollectorBAK, in the installation folder.
Default: empty
Indicates whether deltas are used by the Asset Collector.
Note: Delta processing is a more efficient way to populate the inventory database.
If True, the Asset Collector propagates the changes in inventory information to the scalability server. This option improves the performance of the inventory registration but requires that previous inventory files be stored on the Asset Collector server. Valid values are True and False.
Default: True
Specifies the action on the inventory file that contains an error.
Set the value of the parameter to 0, 1, or 2 to delete the file, move the file to the output folder, or rename the file with a .error extension respectively.
Specifies the action on the processed inventory file.
Set the value of the parameter to 0 or 1 to delete the file, or to move the file to the output folder.
Specifies the action on the rejected inventory file.
Set the value of the parameter to 0, 1, or 2 to delete the file, move the file to the output folder, or rename the file with a .error extension respectively.
Defines a trust level for an asset from a particular origin. Define a trust level when you are collecting inventory information from multiple origins.
Note: Use the origin to trust mapping when the asset file does not have a trust level defined.
Specifies the name of the directory where the processed inventory file is copied after registration. If left empty, the Asset Collector creates an output folder, named AssetCollectorOutput, in the installation folder.
Default: empty
Specifies the rules for processing the inventory files collected from multiple tenants.
To accept or reject an inventory file, configure rules based on trust or collection time.
Specifies the collection time window in seconds. Any inventory file that has a collection time within the same day window is not processed.
Specifies if trust mode or collection time is used to process the inventory files. Set the value to TRUE to use trust level or FALSE to use collection time to process the inventory files.
Indicates whether the children of the collection folders are recursed to monitor for file changes. Valid values are True and False.
Default: True
Specifies the network name or address of the scalability server with which the Asset Collector registers inventory.
Default: localhost
Indicates whether the Asset Collector processes only the files that have valid and trusted digital signatures. Valid values are True and False.
Default: False
Specifies the maximum number of inventory files that can be processed per minute. A value of 0 (zero) indicates no throttling.
Limits: 0–10000
Default: 0
Specifies the name of the file that is used to store the MAC address/host key cache.
Default: machostcache.xml
Specifies the time in seconds before the MAC address/host key cache is purged. An interval of 0 (zero) stops the purge process from occurring.
Limits: 0–2147483647
Default: 0
Specifies the maximum age in seconds of an entry in the MAC address/host key cache after which outdated entries are deleted automatically.
Limits: 0–2147483647
Default: 31536000
Specifies the time in seconds between writing to the MAC address/host key cache and then to storage. The recommended value is 1 day (86400 seconds). If your environment is changing frequently, a shorter interval may be advisable. An interval of 0 (zero) means that the cache is only written to disk when the Asset Collector service stops.
Limits: 0–2147483647
Default: 86400
