Single Host Agents

Use this page to manage configurations and schedule scans for the hosts where the Agent is installed as a service in Single Host mode.

Double-click a host to manage the configuration of the selected Agent and change its settings (Inspection type, Check-in frequency, Days between scans).

Right-click a host name and select Edit Site Configuration to manage the configuration for all the hosts in that Site.

Important:When selecting options under Edit Site Configuration, note that:

•

Any edits to the scan schedule will come into affect only after the currently scheduled scan has completed. Each agent could potentially have a scan scheduled at different times. Therefore, any new scan configuration edit will affect the scan schedule at various times.

•

Any edits made to the Agent Check-In Frequency option or selecting the Schedule Next Scan option Scan host as soon as possible will come into effect only after an agent has checked in as per the previously set scan frequency.

•

The scan configuration settings set on the Software Vulnerability Manager website are not automatically transmitted to the agents. The agents have to connect to the Software Vulnerability Manager website as per their prior scheduled Agent Check-In Frequency before the agents become aware of the new scan configuration edits.

The hosts scanned with the csia.exe will be grouped by Site. By default the domain name will be used as a Site name.

To change a Site name, please refer to Sites. You can also specify a Site name when installing the Agent, by using the -g parameter or by specifying a Site name in the additional parameters when creating the Agent deployment package described in Agent Deployment.
