Hi all,
Is there a fixlet where i can change the relays for the clients, there’s existing clients where i need to switch them to a new bf relay.
Here is the high-level documentation for reference: https://help.hcltechsw.com/bigfix/11.0/platform/Platform/Installation/c_assigning_relays.html
Assuming the Clients are using manual Relay selection, please see https://help.hcltechsw.com/bigfix/11.0/platform/Platform/Installation/c_manually_selecting_relays.html#c_manually_selecting_relays.
You can also adjust the Relays for multiple Clients by clicking the ‘More Options’ button in the ‘Edit Computer Settings’ dialog (https://help.hcltechsw.com/bigfix/11.0/platform/Platform/Console/Dialogs/edit_computer_settings.html), defining the new Relay settings, and selecting the desired Target endpoints.

Hi @Aram,
Thanks for the reply, so meaning there’s no fixlet that i can use to deploy. all need to be done manually by selecting the clients
I wouldn’t say it has to be done manually, no. When using the ‘More Options’ button in the Edit Computer settings dialog, you can designate a Target set of Clients the same way you would with an action taken by Fixlet (i.e. select devices, dynamically by property, or paste in a list of device names). So, one targeting method you could use is to select (or dynamically target) Clients by ‘Relay’, and select the Clients reporting to the ‘old’ Relay to point them to the new one. Below are some example screenshots:
// Edit Computer Settings → More Options, and set the desired Relay settings
// For the Target, select the Clients reporting to the old/previous Relay (either specifically, or dynamically)
Hi @Aram,
I have tried the method you suggested, but when i tried to push to multiple clients, some of them didnt change after the action. And i have to do a single edit, then it will change, any reason for this?
