The Software Vulnerability Manager agent may require randomized scans in large environments to ease the load on the server. This setting must be configured during the installation of the agent and cannot be adjusted from the web UI or database.
We recommend setting the timer between 60 – 120 minutes, which can be done using the following parameters.
- Parameter:
-si / -scantime_interval - Value:
<minutes>Set a random range to delay running software inspection. 0 means no random range, or 1-120 minutes.
An example command would look like this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Flexera Software\Corporate Software Inspector Agent\csia.exe" --service-launch -si 120
To verify there is a set scan interval, enable agent debug logging and check for the following trigger:
- Trigger:
ScanTimeInterval
For 60 minutes, you would see the value 3600 (seconds).
You can also change the setting post-installation:
- Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Flexera Corporate Software Inspector Agent - Modify the ImagePath value:
- From:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Flexera Software\Corporate Software Inspector Agent\csia.exe" --service-launch - To:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Flexera Software\Corporate Software Inspector Agent\csia.exe" --service-launch -si 120
- From:
If you have any other parameters, just add the -si 120 after the --service-launch. For example:
ImagePath - "C:\Program Files (x86)\Flexera Software\Corporate Software Inspector Agent\csia.exe" --service-launch -si 120 -d C:\temp\svmscan.log -v -v
The Software Vulnerability Manager server will receive staggered scan results.
