SoftwareUpdateScanTimeoutSeconds

IT Asset Management (Cloud)

Command line | Registry

SoftwareUpdateScanTimeoutSeconds applies when the tracker issues commands to gather security-related software update information on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, macOS, or Windows environments. If the specific command used to gather the security-related software update information does not return in a timely manner, ndtrack can time out on the blocked command, allowing only the software update information gathering step to fail, while the rest of the process continues.

Values

Values / range

Integer from 0 to 86400 inclusive (in seconds).

Negative or non-integer values are reset to 0.

A value of 0 means there is no timeout, where commands (and therefore all inventory gathering) will remain blocked until the software update information gathering step completes.

Default value

1800

300
