ManageSoftPackages

FlexNet Manager Suite 2022 R2 (On-Premises)

Command line | Registry

ManageSoftPackages determines whether or not software inventory is collected for packages installed by the launcher component (ndlaunch) on this device. Launcher packages are ignored if this preference is false.

Currently, launcher packages are limited mainly to the upgrade package for the FlexNet inventory agent, and downloaded packages of settings used by the installed FlexNet inventory agent. Therefore this is generally a very low-impact setting; but it is set to false by the command line used for high-frequency hardware checks that may be enabled for subcapacity calculations for IBM PVU licenses.
