I have used the approach on http://support.bigfix.com/cgi-bin/kbdirect.pl?id=454 to specify TEM relay at installation time on a few servers. In the same installation process I have used the same approach, to add additional properties on a TEM endpoint.
When the TEM client is installed, the additional properties are missing “effective date” in the registration database. This makes these properties malfunctioning. Properties are showing up on the TEM console - Computer Settings - and I’m able to use them in a relevance expression, but they do not show up in the relevance drop-down box when editing a task (they do whenever created from the TEM Console).
This is how the clientsettings.cfg looks like:
__RelayServer1=http://:/bfmirror/downloads/
_BESClient_Download_PreCacheStageDiskLimitMB=1000
a-property=a-value
b-property=b-value
etc…
Only “__RelayServer1” is created with an “effective date” in the registration database.
How can I use above approach to create computer settings at installation time? - Is there an updated installation tool available?
TEM Endpoint Manager Installer: 8.2
OS: Windows Server 2003, SP1
Root Server Version: 8.2.1093.0
Parent Tivoli Endpoint Manager Relay: 8.2.1093.0
Has anyone experienced that same issue and perhaps found any solution?
Thanks in advance.
