AIX client - Fixlet Install Software Scanner unavailable

Hello,
after manual install of AIX BESClient I wanted to do a Software scan.
Looks like I have to install a scanner for that, but the Fixlet Install or Upgrade Scanner is not available for this AIX computer.
Do I have to manually install it to the AIX client?

Any documentation for this?

Thanks, Igor

Igor, please see https://help.hcltechsw.com/bigfix/10.0/inventory/Inventory/planinconf/t_deploying_cit_scanner.html for additional details on setting up the scanner for BFI.

That is so kind of you, @cmcannady, got it up and running.
I have the sw scan completed.
Unfortunately sw scan did not detect an IBM product installed, Websphere MQ.
Is there any log file I can check for errors or msgs that help me fix this?
Thanks, Igor

I think this is the wiki that you’re looking for with respects to troubleshooting BFI scanning.

@cmcannady, thanks a lot for your reply.
I think there is another kind of problem here, not necessarily a technical one in the sense that scan does not work, generates an error or goes time out … but that the sw I am looking for is outdated, I think even out of support.
I have contacted support to find out if there is a way to include this sw into scan/reporting.
Thanks for the wiki hint.

Cheers, Igor
