I need to create several Linux fixlets. Would like to create from scratch one to check the existance of /boot partition. Where and how should I create it ?
Thank you in advance
I’m assuming you’re asking about the relevance portion of a Fixlet? If so, how about something like:
exists filesystems whose (volume of it = “/boot”)
Thanks Aram,
I am asking where should I use this sentence, also. If I look a similar fixlet (/var or /home) it does not use this method to check. Instead, the fixlet checks the result on a file previously created when you run “Deploy and Run Security Checklist”. For Linux and AIX, IEM push scripts to the controled computers and I dont know where & how I have to create this scritps and how to write to the result file (that is read later by IEM to report the status)
Certain SCM checklists do use scripts in the absence of available inspectors, yes, but in cases where native relevance inspectors are available, they’d certainly be recommended. The above relevance can be leveraged directly within a Fixlet. In order for such a custom Fixlet to be available for reporting within SCA, please see https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Tivoli%20Endpoint%20Manager/page/SCM%20Custom%20Fixlet%20Authoring.
I’m downloading it !
Thank you very much, Aram !!!
Aram, I read your document and I dont know where we should create the xml files.
I’ve created some filxet on AIX using Relevance Language, like the sentence in your first answer, but its result does not appear on Web Reports. Is that because of we have to create the xml files ?
