Both analysis and remediation checks are included

The Environment Setup task utilizes atomic result refreshes, ensuring that existing results remain available until new results are generated. Results now also include a collection timestamp for better tracking and auditability.

The Applicability Fixlet includes additional validation, ensuring that the Environment Setup Task log file exists, is not older than 90 days, and that results of files are present. This ensures Fixlets are reported as Not Applicable, and that the Measured Value (MV) correctly indicates that the Environment Setup Task has not been executed.

Some of the checks allow you to use the parameterized setting to enable customization for compliance evaluation. Note that parameterization and remediation actions require the creation of a custom site.

Actions to take:

  • To subscribe to the above site, you can use the License Overview Dashboard to enable and gather the site. Note that you must be entitled to the BigFix Compliance product, and you must be using BigFix version 10 and later.
