Hi ,

there is a mismatch for application ID’s. “30.0.0.113” and “30.0.0.114” are same. Is it correct ? why 30.0.0.113 is not superseded ?

we deploy a policy baseline then you change flash player “30.0.0.113” to "30.0.0.134 " , baseline will stuck in “pending downloads” . this is same with google chrome new update. “67.0.3396.87” and “67.0.3396.99” updates ID’s are same . Is this chrome and flash player issue ?

this is very important for policy baselines.

Generally, we only supersede old content and create new content when the old content is in a usable state. The old Adobe Flash and Google Chrome content is not usable when an update is released - both companies retain the same URL for the downloads but change the files, so the sha hashes not longer match and the downloads are no longer verified.

The companies do not want you to download the older versions.

You may want to investigate the Baseline Syncronization Dashboard - https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Tivoli%20Endpoint%20Manager/page/Baseline%20Synchronization%20Dashboard
