Scanning from the Command Line

Run Software Vulnerability Manager Agent with immediate command line scan, with options. Ignores registry settings and server settings:

csia.exe -c <config options>

Run Software Vulnerability Manager Agent locally in service mode as current user, reading options from command line, registry and server, with command line options taking precedence, then server options, then registry options. To stop the service once it is running, press CTRL+C:

csia.exe -fg <config options>

If possible, run the Software Vulnerability Manager Agent locally in service mode as a different user with -L and -R. This will read options in exactly the same way as a service, with the exception of <config options> on the command line override which, unlike a service, has no command line:

csia.exe -fg -L <config options>

csia.exe -fg -R <user> <config options>

Order of precedence:

•

Settings given on command line take precedence but, when running as a service, there is no command line.

•

Settings from server take precedence over settings read from registry.
