BES agent to BES DB first-time registration

Hi jgstew,

I am getting as error field
The Operator “creation time” is not defined
. for non-windows platform.

Relevance :- creation time of folder “__BESData” of parent folder of Client

(imported comment written by jgstew)

non-windows platforms do not have the “__BESData” folder in the parent folder of client, which is why you are getting that issue.

You should be able to use ( creation time of parent folder of client ) instead.

Hi James,

I am getting the same error
The Operator "creation time"
is not defined

for non-windows platform.

Relevance :-
creation time of parent folder of client

Odd, it seems “creation time” is Win/Mac only according to this:

Does this work:
(minimum of subscribe times of sites)

Hi James,

(minimum of subscribe times of sites) dosen’t work for me its not giving the exact installation in many endpoints.

Can we retrive the output after giving commands via relevance.

Like
For Solaris: Command :
pkginfo -l BESagent | grep INSTDATE
Output:
** dd-mm-yy**

For Linux: Command :
rpm -qa --queryformat ’ %{installtime:date}\n’ BESAgent
Output:
** dd-mm-yy**

**or anyother way like by using **
modification time of <File/Folder>

Is there a file that contains the package / rpm install info that could be read through relevance that those commands are getting the info from?

Otherwise I think the best option would be to run those above commands and output them to a file, then read the date from the file using relevance.

See the “data folder” property of this analysis:
